It will take time, John, for collectors to recognize that Early American Coinages have three sides.
Ten years ago no one even recognized that coins had edges! No one had ever paid any attention to my writings on edge effects, done years earlier in CNL!
Much less did they observe that a plethora of information is contained on those edges!
AND - don't just LOOK at those edges. Sit back - close your eyes, relax, and lightly FEEL those edges with your fingertips. You will quickly recognize shapes and detail that you cannot SEE!
There are several varieties in the Barnlsey reference collection of Connecticut coppers that contain about 16 specimens of the same die variety. You can go accomplish the FEEL technique and determine accurately how many different planchet cutters were used - still - without looking at the coins, by FEEL you can stack them up with the odd Feel-points together and then look. You will suddenly see edge markings on every specimen in a stack that you would never have noticed, otherwise. Just like rifling marks on bullets!
This is the means to solve the secrets of the Blacksmiths! I pointed this out to both Fuld and Tayman when I met them at ANS a few years back. How well they listened is unknown to me, today.
