<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CappedBustDimes, post: 879478, member: 9104&quot;]In 1950 Milford H. Bolender published The United States Silver Dollars from 1794 to 1803, a reference book based on his own specialized collection of Bust dollars. He described and illustrated each variety known to him at the time and assigned (B) numbers to each coin. The book was extensively revised by noted collector, Jules Reiver, in 1988. A second reference book, Silver Dollars &amp; Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia, Vol. One, authored in 1993 by Q. David Bowers and Mark Borckardt corrected and updated the Bolender book. Each known variety was assigned a (BB) number.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d get the Reiver manual if had to choose only one, the Bowers and Borckardt runs $200-$400 when you can find it and the Bolender text usually runs $100+ depending on which version.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reiver&#039;s is the best value and easiest to use in my opinion with the most amount of needed information conveniently condensed down into a usable format...I have all of them and always reach for Jule&#039;s when I need a quick attribution that I don&#039;t know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
