Thank you for the reply, but after checking that, I did go on to more searching and finding results showing very good publications including PDF files to download about such coinage that explain when, where and why items like fineness and alignment were altered. That can explain why printed catalogs and some online sources list particular attributes one way that can be at variance to the actual coins. I like to learn about the coins I have in hand and understand how and why conflicting descriptions exist. As a result of online searching, I have found more publications to add to the library. As a side note, many coins shows have a corner or tables for publications. But my focus has mainly been coin dealer tables. As it is now, I need to spend more time looking for the books to buy.
