Got mine yesterday. Quite a good study for me. I have about 60 1922-D's and a few 1922 plains to ID. I hope I can ID them all-Due to the great content of this book, it may take me some time just to ID one of them. I have no previous education on this.There is an appendix that might help with attributions.

Looks like by ordering on Amazon I'm going to have to be patient. I wanted to order locally at Barnes and Noble but they could not match Amazon price which was significantly lower. Did I unwittingly involve myself in a catch 22 (no pun intended
) situation by ordering at Amazon? The lady at Barnes and Noble told me that Amazon,the booksellers, sometimes lose money on book sales because they are so agressive with preorders. Oh well. I can wait a bit longer for the Limited Edition copy I ordered and it will be all that much sweeter when I do receive my copy a month or so from now. I'm sure Tom's book will be worth every penny what I'm paying for it and then some. 
"Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
-Albert Einstein-Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

Mine arrived from Whitman. I don’t have many 1922-D’s, but will be fun trying to match them. Incredible amount of work done in this book. 👏

Got mine (deluxe edition) just before I left for a family trip. From what I saw, it looks like a very well done research book, look forward to diving in later.
Shameless plug: the last example in the encased 1922 cents chapter is mine!

Did not know the hard bound was numbered, seems I have #80 of 250.
I bought one of each (soft cover to read) About half way through. Very enjoyable. You can tell a lot of work went into this.

Pleasant surprise to see the numbered edition. Great book. One of my favorite coins.

I received my copies last week and got lucky #66 of the special edition. I'm about halfway through the book getting a review of the minting process and history of the times. Just now getting to the section on the many die pairs.
That said, I will avoid ordering from Whitman at all cost in the future. Lots of disappointment with my order process. I would have save a lot of money ordering from Amazon. Or, I would have much preferred paying up and ordering a signed copy directly from Tom.

I'm sorry you had trouble with Whitman. I ordered boxes of books twice and had no problems.

Here's a "Removed D" fake 1922 "No D, Strong Reverse" cent currently on the Bay of Fleas:
You can see that it is missing the diagnostic "feathered 9" and "feathered R" in LIBERTY as illustrated in my book.

Already boxed up for return to GC. It'll be in one of their auctions fairly soon. If I recall, NGC just called it 22-D, but it's an old slab from when only DP 2 mattered. It'll be in one of their auctions fairly soon.

Bought a nice specimen of the very rare Die Pair #ZeroA off of Great Collections. This die pair was previously known by only a single, circulated specimen. Here are some pictures that would have been in the book if I had had this coin prior to publication, courtesy of the Great Collections lot illustration.
Diagnostic spike on the foot of the E of WE.
Dimples by the mint mark, believed to be the result of a Philadelphia Mint die being altered to a Denver Mint die.
Previously unnoticed feed finger lines above the NE of ONE.
Have a couple other new purchases coming that will be posted after I get them.

I acquired this one about 2 years ago. The most hammered strike I had ever seen for this date.
Beautiful coin!

I like this one I picked up in the last two years. Strongly hammered obverse paired with a reverse die that is cracked at 7 pm and grease filled ears rather than die erosion.

I am informed that ANACS will certify 1922 Cents with the DeLorey number on the slab if requested. I am trying to get the details of what you need to do to have this done.
