    Go to Early United States Coins - to order the New "Early United States Half Dollar Vol. 1 / 1794-1807" book or the 1st new Bust Quarter book!

    five authors representing the John Reich Collectors Society wrote a book on attribution of early dimes, thus the "JR" preface.

    "Early United States Dimes" was a fabulous effort that paved the way for excellent references like "Federal Half Dimes" and Steve Tompkins' new quarter book. If you collect the series, it's a "MUST HAVE"

    I currently don't collect them. Thanks for the information though. I might need to get one of those books.
