<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 506972, member: 8363"]Regarding that math model. I think what he was saying that the pieces were labelled sequentially and therefore, the numbers are ordinal numbers - 1st, 2nd and so forth. With the graph starting with 1862 as 0, he postulated that production being a steady rate, he could plot his pieces on the curve of the time period to determine their approximate age. He said that the curve wasn't entirely correct because it didn't take into consideration manufacturing rates. If you had a numbered piece, then you could also approximate age according to the graph.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
