Is there a companion book to the US Copper Cent Book by Newcomb that gives additional information for the die varieties? I had someone ask about an 1856 that I felt was an N18 but didn't have the lines in the "T" and the "Y". He felt that it was an N19 and mentioned a different line in the "Y" that my book does not mention. The edition that I have is copyrighted 1986. Any info would be appreciated. I have to be out all day until about 7 tonight, so please don't feel that I'm ignoring any responses to this thread. This will be the first thing I'll check when I return. Thanks for any help.
I don't know of a companion book per se to the newcomb book but many people find Breens book to be quite helpful. Nick
I just found out that there is a book by Grellman from 2001. Apparently it has additional identifiers for the die varieties that Newcomb doesn't mention. I guess that's the next addition to my library - and soon.
