A question for colleagues on this list. Is there a preferred practice for encoding a pair of consecutive $c's in a 100 field?
I've seen the following for AAPs fashioned in the style of 'Smith, John, Jr., Mrs.':
100 1- Smith, John, $c Jr., $c Mrs.
- and -
100 1- Smith, John, $c Jr., Mrs.
The latter appears to be more common in the authority file.
