  Varieties? There are 6.
  
  If you are talking about die marriages, though...from memory I believe there are 21.

  Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

  Yes, I counted. 21 die marriages is correct from 1796 to 1807. There are total of 94 varieties, or die marriages of Early quarters from 1796 to 1838 known ( cirluation strikes) not including the 1827.

  There are 96 total die marriages known...why are we excluding the two 1827's?
  
  I think I have proven that the 1827 B-1 at least was struck in the 1815-1828 time frame and most likely in 1827. The two early die stage 1827 B-2's at least were struck most likely between 1827 and the late 1830's, although the rusted late die stage B-2's were struck circa 1870.
  
  Both of these die marriages were struck using mint made dies, all of which were used to strike other recognized die marriages.
  
  If the reason to exclude them is based on price or availability...then we can also exclude the 1823 B-1, both 1796 die marriages and the rare 1821 B-6 and 1837 B-6!
  
  All of these are Mint produced die marriages and collectable in my opinion, regardless of rarity or price (Although I for one do not have the funds to own all of them).
  
  Just my 2 bits worth...

  The PCGS 98 excludes the two 1827 Proofs, but adds in 1806 B-9A and 1807 B-1A. Still 96. Plus the 1818 B-11 thought not to exist, plus the 1820 B-3 is double counted. That's how the get to 98, but the total should be 96.
