<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 628030, member: 57463&quot;]&quot;Favorite&quot; is such a difficult word...&nbsp; The one that I enjoy reading is Q. David Bowers&#039; <i>History of American Coinage as Illustrated by the Garrett Collection</i>.&nbsp; So, that would be my favorite in that sense.&nbsp; However, the one I rely on most often is The Red Book for ready access of common facts.&nbsp; That said, the truly superlative and unsurpassed work is <i>Breen&#039;s Encyclopedia</i>.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I am not a Bust Half collector and while the Souder Book (in large and small versions) is truly nice, the one that I look to is THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO ATTRIBUTING BUST HALF DOLLARS&nbsp; by Glenn R. Peterson, MD. (2000. Money Tree, Rocky River, Ohio), but, again, it is not the first one that I reach for because I do not actively collect the series, but it is the one I rely on for authority, not the same thing as &quot;favorite.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
