Sizes  were produced in large measure by the mining techniques. When you 
mined  the coal and then ran it through the breaker, you got a whole range of 
 
sizes and to a great extent, you could not control that, unless you  
**wanted** small sizes such as the Buckwheats.
 
I understand  all that, but they had different sizes and they were  shipped 
as such, You listed them.
So my question still is, what size coal by name was the most  abundantly 
produced, shipped, sold, consumed, etc.
