Someone in here was nice enough to direct me to the Lincoln Resource Center. A site dedicated to Lincoln Cents only.

They have incredible lists of key dates, Doubled Dies list with clear illustrations of each, Checklists, Price Guide...every reference resource I can think of or ever needed for collecting Lincoln cents. I guess they have a forum too, but I am mostly interested the reference materials and resources.

Now I wonder, Is there anything like that for Jefferson nickels? Kennedy halves? etc., etc.

I would be interested in knowing about any similar site dedicated to any US coin from the present, and as far back as the following:

Indian Head Cents
Buffalo nickels
Mercury dimes
Standing Liberty quarters
Walking Liberty half
Morgan Dollar


I am especially interested in such a site for Kennedy Half Dollars.

An help would be appreciated.

dcv,

to the forum! I'm relatively new here myself, and usualy add a site or two each day to my "favorites list. Stick around, read through the past posts in the modern and classic forums and you'll find a wealth of information and resources. This is a GREAT place!

Indian Head cents http://indiancent.wikispaces.com/
Lincoln cents http://www.coppercoins.com/
Buffalo nickels http://www.buffalonickel.com/
Morgan/Peace dollars http://www.vamworld.com/
SBA/Sacagawea/Presidential dollars http://www.smalldollars.com/

Most coin series do not have dedicated sites due to smaller collector interest. Books are available for virtually any series of coins and will almost always have much more information than a website.

Jefferson nickel info can be found at https://www.varietynickels.com - but it's still a work in progress, last time I checked.

Shieldnickels.net

Maybe we should all compile a master list that list sites for each type?

Hey, Thanks everyone. This is exactly the type of sites I was looking for. Amazon, I think that's a great idea. I can't imagine how much Googling I have had to do to find all the sites listed above. (And how many ebay listings I would have had to wade through before I found them)
Thanks again!

As noted there are numerous books available on each type of coin and are way more explicit in examples and information. If you have a coin show in your area you may want to go there. At many of them there are people selling all kinds of books on coins and many are dedicated to just one type. I've seen books at coin shows on practically every type of US and many foreign coins ever made. Due to some coins not being or having a large amount minted some books I've seen consolidate those. Example is I've seen books on the 2 and 3 cent coins together. At one coin show I go to there is one person that sells nothing but coin books and says he can get any book on coins ever made if requested. Probably exagerating but he dose have a heck of a pile of books.

dcv- can you post the url to the Lincoln Resource Center? Maybe age is starting to take it's toll on me but I couldn't find the site by searching either the forums here, or on Google!

I agree that a sticky list would be great, btw.

look out for 2Centworld.com in late 2008 if I ever stop reading this forum long enough to finish writing the HTML.
