You and me both Scott. The Red Book must just show the more common ones. I thought it was deciding if it was Pointed or Club Rays and then whether it said States Unites or United States on the back circle. I guess there must be more to the Cinquefoils and stops. Dan, what other variables ar there besides the Rays and the Back circle? Is there a website with all the varieties or are you using onw of your Books ? I guess you want to get it right when it could mean the difference of possibly thousands of dollars. The coins aren't cheap.
Dan, do you know anyone that has found one of those later made ones from the 1800's with the thinner circles ? What's the story? A brother stole the dies and made his own coins later in the 1800's, is that it?
Is there any variations concerning the Sundial also? Or the numbers in the date ? It's such a complex Coin. It must have to be in really good shape to pos. ID. Mines toast.
Here's mine:
