For BG-799 family coins, B&G 2nd Edition only lists to BG-799DD. Where can I find the new die variety info for BG-799EE, BG799-FF and BG799-GG?
Any info is greatly appreciated.

Attached is an article indicating that after the Jay Roe book was published an article that NGC discovered a BG-799 GG.
I collect the calfrac series and have a great number of the BG-799 group. The differences between certain 799s from other 799 could be so slight and many are mis-attributed. Its very interesting that within the calfrac series, some coins are different die states and others could be different varieties. If you look hard enough and compare some calfracs to the Bg book, then you can discover different die states. I always wondered what the difference is between a different die state and a different variety. There is one calfrac that I have that experts say its a die state but one berry is missing for that variety. Maybe its a new discovery?? Interesting.
Thanks a lot for the info. It helps since this is one of a few new die varieties found after B&G 2nd edition book published. According to NGC article, this new variety was found in 2009 and two were known, one PCGS MS65 and the other one is NGC MS65PL.
Have fun to take a look.
