(I know, I just dated myself) After a while you know what to look for. 1878 P is all about the reverse first. The pick up points are the tail feathers, 7 or 8, slanted or parallel arrow feather and the center arrow nock - short or long. Long arrow nock means it's a 7 over 8 tail feather or B1 reverse. The attribution guides take you from there. Report this Post to the Staff
