The last one seems to be a worn version of the second repunched type. IMHO

Super photos, I think the different obverses being hubbed over another took place quite often as the dies were took to the furnace to be softened and then brought back for another impression.

Prooflike and business strike.

Here's photos of recent coins and differences in the dies. Note the 2009 and 2007 pl coins and the distance of the date to sail and water to beads. The 2008 is more like a business strike die. I can't wait to see a 2009 business strike dime. http://www.coinsandcanada.com/forum/class/test/2007_10_cen...

At least it could be a 2a or 2b. What years? There is an early 2 marker also noted by Haxby. Scratch at the top near where the bun attaches to head which made me suspect your coin above was a late stage #2 because it's not there. Perhaps when the scratch is removed the button of hair changes also?

Kevin, I look at the top lip. real curved is #2, straighter would be a #5. Also look at where the top of the bun is attached to the head. The #1 is V shaped and the others are more of a right angle. These are tough to distinguish and I may be 100% wrong.
