Hi Jeff!
I only use the chart in the Durst reprint to determine the obverse and
reverse types, then I go after the pictures. The Perkins catalog was at
hand at the time. I came up with the reverse type as a "T" family from the
chart, not the "s" family. That's where I was thrown off. I rarely see
CT's and find them much more challenging to attribute than NJ's. Thanks for
the suggestion...
Ray
