Washington Quarter Reference? Not SQ!

Please help,

Sometime agon I read an article or book, I can't remember which, that went into details about the reverse die varieties (ie, A, B, C), details, dates of use, etc.

For the life of me, I cannot remember where I read this info. Can someone tell me of an authoritative reference they would recommend, or if this sounds familiar, where you read it?

I have The Best of the Doubled Dies, so I'm not looking for that, and I hope it wasn't the Wiles Attribution Guide(s) which only cover '32 to '41( Vol 1) and even less '41 to '45 (Vol 2).

I guess it could have been the out or print book by Jeff Feiger (is that the right author) and if so, does anybody have or know where I can get it, besides BORROWING from ANA again?

    I'm probably wrong about this but the only Washington Quarters book I know of is John Feigenbaum's. You can probably get it from David Lawrence website....since John acutally runs the DLRC.

    I've never read the book so I don't know if it discusses varieties at all....

    So far as I know this information is in no book. Coin World has run several
    well written articles on the subject over the last 10 years. Can't remember
    wrote them off the top of my head, but I think one was Wiles.

    jom is right. It's covered in the Complete Guide to Washington Quarters by John Feigenbaum of DLRC.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    You're right it is in Fiegenbaum, though he doesn't mention the type "D".
