<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 1976355, member: 46237&quot;]Oh they were definitely done to show off the color, no question. I think the Peterson book was meant to be one you can leave on your coffee table. It&#039;s definitely informative and useful for attributing coins of this series, but it&#039;s also meant to be beautiful to display and to flip through. The Tompkins book is also attractive, but it&#039;s less flashy and more like a text book. The images are not greyscale, but they depict typical high grade coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you&#039;re looking for a more diagnostically-minded book than the Peterson, I strongly suggest you pick up the Tompkins. It is densely packed with great information on the series; even devoting a significant portion of the book to displaying die marriage and re-marriage progression charts and mint records. The Peterson book is one you refer to, but the Tompkins book is one you can also <i>study</i>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
