    I am ready! :) I paid 19.95 delivered for this book because the seller said the dust cover was torn and taped. Book itself is fine. Thought that price was good.

    It doesn't matter if the cover went through Vietnam is what's inside that matters if you want to attribute a die variety on an early large cent and not have to ask Marshall :) this will do the trick I paid 3x more and it paid for itself within 3 months I can be too lazy to get around to looking them up for a while tho

    Bear in mind that a LOT of new finds have occurred since 1948.
    In other words your copy may not cover all varieties.
