[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 1066986, member: 21705"]This is a tough one because no single reference is sufficient for my specialty. The one that is in tatters is my Sheldon Penny Whimsy. My newer Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of Early United States Cents 1703-1814 is currently getting more use with it's better die state information. I actually use the online catalog of Holmes Early Date Auction for comparison coins rather than the book illustrations of either. [url]http://www.icollector.com/The-Pre-Long-Beach-Sale_as14916[/url] Then My 2010 Redbook answers most of my other general questions concerning mintages, weights and rough valuations of the common varieties as well as information for other coinage. To pick one is like choosing between my children. (which I never do by the way)[/QUOTE]
