<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kanga, post: 5287826, member: 9270&quot;]When I get a new large cent my normal procedure is:</p><p>1. Take good pictures.</p><p>2. Post them in here.</p><p>3. Ask for someone to ID the variety.</p><p>4. Add that info the images and my database.</p><p>5. When I find time I dig out my book on large cents and see if I can come up with the same variety.</p><p><br /></p><p>So what&#039;s my go-to book on large cents?</p><p><u>The Cent Book / 1816-1839</u> by <b><font size="5">John D. Wright.</font></b></p><p><font size="4">Good grief!</font></p><p><font size="4">I just made the connection!!!</font></p><p><font size="4">The man who wrote the book has been ID&#039;ing my coins.</font></p><p>No wonder he gets them right.</p><p><br /></p><p>I feel honored that he takes the time to help me.</p><p>A very special thanks from me goes out to Mr. Wright.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve got another large cent coming.</p><p>I&#039;ll see if I can ID it first and then let John check my performance.</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S. I&#039;m good at ID&#039;ing Classic Head half cents varieties.</p><p>I&#039;ve got a full set.</p><p>But they are a LOT easier to ID; there only 24.</p><p>The 1809 C-1 was the last one I got; expensive even in a DETAILS grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
