Hi. I see a "Snow" number listed for Flying Eagle & Indian Head cents - repunched dates, etc. Is there a book or website that lists these Snow numbers, with photos? I see a book by Rick Snow on Amazon - is this the guide with pictures of these Snow numbers? Thanks http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Flying-Eagle-Indian-Cents/dp/0794828310/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top ( Is there a similar type reference for the Lincolns?)
For FE and IHC's that is the book you need to own and read. For Lincoln cents there are number of references but this one will get you started. http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Lincoln...=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1327424502&sr=1-1
The Book in the first post is an overview of FE and IHC, and a few of the Snow series of varieties, but it will not give you what you are asking. For that you need this PDF file delivered online, http://www.indiancent.com/4502-comp...ution-guide-online-edition-2011-700-pgs-.html or the paper form: http://www.indiancent.com/3357-new-the-entire-snow-book-in-one-volume-.html For Lincoln Cents, I like Wexler and Flynn's The Authoritative Reference on Lincoln Cents 2Ed. http://www.amazon.com/Authoritative-Reference-Lincoln-Cents/dp/B0032CLWQE and Crawford's Detailed analysis of Lincoln Cent Varieties. I use the older Vol. 1 paper book, but he does have a complete CD/DVD to present, but I don't have a seller reference that works any more. Jim
Wow - thanks everyone for the quick information! I just ordered the 700 page hard copy binder of the big Snow book. That'll get me started on the Flying Eagles & Indian Heads, and I'll follow up with the Lincolns later. The PDF version would have saved some money, but I'd rather have a book I can take anywhere, rather than be stuck using a PC.
The problem with a physical 700 page book is that you CAN'T take it with you everywhere. Something like that is why I am looking at a tablet computer that I can load all my references into. Go to a show and still have my whole key library with me at my fingertips and all in the size of a small paperback book.
I just want the book for home use. I really doubt I'll be going to any shows, so home use is what I need.
In that case I would prefer the printed book as well. Of course I have the equipment to print and bind the PDF file into my own book.
Nice idea. At 700 pages I'd probably burn out my little home printer, not to mention the ink cost. If I was still working I could have done it at work though.
