srs77 Pillar of the Community United States 3197 Posts	Posted 09/14/2013 8:52 pm I was finally able to land a copy of the following books... Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of United States Half Cents and United States Copper Cents - Howard R. Newcomb I've been getting into Copper lately and these are the first two books I've been able to obtain. Great reads so far and a huge help in identifying my Large Cents.

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 05:44 am The Breen encyclopedia on Half Cents is excellent, next one you should try to find is Manley's Half Cent Die States! "A Quickfinder for Attributing Varieties of Business Strike United States Half Cents 1793-1857" By Gregory S. Heim is out now in the 2nd edition, and is a great help to attributing those varieties I've found, not too expensive either - I got mine directly from him on ebay. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!
