Adam5 Valued Member United States 62 Posts	Posted 07/20/2010 1:17 pm I've been doing a bit of roll searching lately and have been curious about different varieties that are not listed in the regular Red Book. In the forums I heard about the Cherry Picker's Guide, so I checked it out at the book store. They only had volume 1, but at $39.95! Is there a cheaper variety reference out there? www.coppercoins.com is pretty thorough. Is there anything like that online, or do I have to become a member of PGCS or something? Thanks, Adam Report this Post to the Staff

There is nothing more comprehensive in print, online...anywhere. There are a few books out there that are decent, but most of them are going to cost $20 or more. Report this Post to the Staff

copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 07/22/2010 7:12 pm I totally agree with Chuck; nothing is better than his website for Lincoln Cents. I paid the $39.95 for the Cherrypicker's Guide, but mainly to get the nickel listings. It's really good for Indian cents, too, although for Indians this is a good site too http://indiancent.wikispaces.com/ Another book that is pretty good is "Strike it Rich with Pocket Change" by Brian Allen and Ken Potter. A lot of repetition of Chuck's site and the Cherrypicker's guide, but it can be found pretty cheap in a lot of discount book stores ($17.99 cover price; think I paid $6.99 for mine new.)
