They could’ve been rounded to 1 tr.oz., ½ tr.oz., ¼ tr.oz., and an eighth or a tenth for the last size but still, four designs. Okay, three unless they’d’ve used the Coronet Head for the $2½ size. Wouldn’t the mint have sold more that way because people would want to build the set? I hope the idea was at least floated back then. Such a lost opportunity…
