Cent Books

What would be some good books for Cent collecting and searching.

Wexlers I hear is a good book to get for as variations,

DVN magazine has a CD guide for Lincoln Cents from the last 100 or so years. Im debating ( its only a CD version so no hard or soft cover book)

Theres a book called Looking through Lincoln Cents by Charles Daurghry (sp) that suppose to be good

Anyone have any other suggestions for good books on Lincolns to make searching boxes more fun and exciting. I have a Cherry pickers guide but I wouldnt mind finding minor variations that are not expensive but cool to find.

For As sites Ive been to TrailDies.com and Coppercoins.com and LincolnCentResource. Im open to other ideas as well. One of my finds has been mailed in to traildies for a possible discovery.

    "Looking through Lincoln Cents" by Charles Daurghtry is a good one to have.
    I use it and I also keep handy "A Guide Book of Lincoln Cents" by QDB.
    Both great Lincoln handbooks.

    Kevin flynn's authoritative lincoln cent reference is my favorite, hands down. It is in my opinion the most complete book on die varieties out there.

    Those are all good ones, Charles Daughtrey and Wexler and Kevin Flynn (even that older tiny pocket book).
    The CPG is another.

    The RPM book by James Wiles ( I think he has a new CD book too)
    The PCGS guide to coin grading and counterfeit detection has some good info.

    I find the web has a lot of info but sometimes a book is nice too.

    The Standard Guide to the Lincoln Cent by Dr. Sol Taylor
