Here are a few more results of last week's coin show. These are from a group of IHCs I picked out for a friend.
The funny thing is—I did not see the first 3 RPDs and the 1909 DDO when I first picked out these coins, unless it was part of a "gut feeling" to simply buy them.
In any case, this adds three RPDs and one DDO to a group that already includes the 1894/1894 IHC. I think this was my best show yet!

1887 Snow-2, a subtle 8/8 RPD

1893 Snow-15, 8/8, 3/3 RPD

1908 Snow-3, 19/19 RPD, and the 1 digit in denticles MPD (crummy photo)

1909 Snow-2, DDO in date and on Longacre's initial (in 1909, date was part of hub so no RPDs)

A-Nice-Group-Of-IHC-Varieties

And last but not least:
The 1894/1894 Snow-1

JAB--I thought you liked the big silver coins, not the tiny copper ones?

These are for Latman100, but if you have any requests...let me know.

I did not know that the date was added to the hub.
Interesting.

Interesting, I just re-read Snow, and you are right, not that I doubted you.

The date was added to the hub.

I learn something every day.

Treashunt,
Yes--I was also surprised when I read it! The end of an era for variety collectors--the end of dates punched individually into dies.
Something useful from that detail is that every 1909-S IHC will have the date in the exact same position, whether minted in Philadelphia or San Francisco.
