100 is what some industries do (esp. the French) but it should be 10, which I think Helios do. Confusion reigns because people don’t understand the difference between 5th and 6th Organon. 5th is centesimal and says 2, but that changes when you read the corresponding edition of Chronic diseases, which changes it back to 10. 6th edition is LM ONLY and says 100. (You can’t make a centesimal from guidelines in the 6th – there are none – only for LM's)
The pharmacopoeia’s have it wrong (French etc). United States Homeo. Pharm. when I last checked mentioned 10 – but they only make decimal potencies (X) – absurd !!!

LM potency in a chronic case
Re: LM potency in a chronic case
Hahnemann Chronic Diseases:
"When I was still giving the medicines in undivided portions, each with some water at a time, I often found that the potentizing in the attenuating glasses effected by ten shakes was too strong (i. e., the medicinal action too strongly developed) and I, therefore, advised only two succussions. But during the last years, since I have been giving every dose of medicine in an incorruptible solution, divided over fifteen, twenty or thirty days and even more, no potentizing in an attenuating vial is found too strong, and I again use ten strokes with each. So I herewith take back what I wrote on this subject three years ago in the first volume of this book on page 149."
