<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 26527432, member: 104064&quot;]I had not heard of the second book. I can&#039;t find much about what it covers, but an ebay listing indicates it includes medals and currency? If RPDs and MPDs across everything ever coined or printed is your thing...</p><p><br /></p><p>Some reviews of his dime book are critical because of the title. I don&#039;t own it but from what I gather, it&#039;s more authoritative reference on Barber dime <i>varieties</i>. Nothing about the history, hub types, mintage, relative scarcity, value, etc. For that you&#039;d want Bowers&#039; Guidebook of Barber Silver Coins or David Lawrence&#039;s 1990 Complete Guide to Barber Dimes, which is online here <a href="https://archive.org/details/compguidebarbdime1991lawr" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://archive.org/details/compguidebarbdime1991lawr" rel="nofollow">https://archive.org/details/compguidebarbdime1991lawr</a>. The Flynn book seems more akin to a Cherrypickers for Barber dimes. And as I&#039;ve said in that other thread, none of these have an accurate portrayal of the hub type transition varieties. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.heritagestatic.com/c/d/cms/045/768/Barber-Dime-Varieties.04576858.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.heritagestatic.com/c/d/cms/045/768/Barber-Dime-Varieties.04576858.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.heritagestatic.com/c/d/cms/045/768/Barber-Dime-Varieties.04576858.pdf</a> was linked on Heritage when Flynn sold off his dime collection. I think it was taken from the dime book but it starts on page 45 and ends on page 179 with 1908-S so I don&#039;t know how complete that is. Although I think in 1909 the mint started putting the date on a master die so there may not be any more RPD or MPD after 1908. The RPM section does go through 1915 so this PDF may include everything relevant from his dime book. </p><p><br /></p><p>FYI Cherrypickers Guide Vol 2 5th edition has a section on Barber dimes from before they slaughtered it for the 6th edition. I bought it on Kindle for like $12 a few years ago but I haven&#039;t checked if that&#039;s still available.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
