declanwmagee Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Learned Gentlemen...I am reliably informed that the little 5 pointed stars punctuating the edge inscription of my 1845 Crown are actually cinquefoils, not Stars, and that a real star stop is eight pointed. That's useful to know.I dug out CoinCraft 2000 and there's a reference in there to a "4 in date has large upper serif" variety.examine, if you will...the serif on the 4 is a large triangle pointing upwards, not a crosslet, and not a "normal" rectangular stick.what do you think? Is that what they might mean? Quote
