Sheldon Overton Baby Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 6:20 pm I cannot for the life of my attribute the Bobby Heads. The only "rare" one is N-15 and is this one? Weak reverse outer leaves and berries especially on the left side? I don't have the Newcomb literature directly so I wing it. Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 7:17 pm Not sure exactly which one, but probably not N-15, the curl doesn't cut far enough into the 9. My first guess is an N-6, but brighter pics would help. Report this Post to the Staff

RoyCoinBoy Pillar of the Community United States 1609 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 8:20 pm I wonder which 13 year old came up with that name way back in 1852. Report this Post to the Staff

Sheldon Overton Baby Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 06/11/2017 10:15 pm I am just not well versed in these. I saw the weakness on the outer leaves of the reverse and thought maybe an N-15 Report this Post to the Staff
