Sure!
I'm eager to see the 1909/1919.
If you can get a pic of the date and the shoulder where VDB is on 1919 cents and the reverse where VDB is on 1909 cents that would be good.

Tig, there are several books that tell you all about the minting process. One of them is referred to as the "Plaid Book".
The real name is "The Error Coin Encyclopedia" I have the fourth Edition.by
Arnold margolis NLG, and Fred Weinberg NLG.
I paid $39.95, plus S&H.
It will take you thru the mint, and everty stage of the process, from the suppliers, to the final handling of the coins, the pvalues, ( ay that time) for error coins, and a good illustration of all the errors. It is worth it's weight in gold, in my humble opinion!
I will mention, also that Chuck has a book that is well worth the price, and equally as informative in the area of the wheats, and Memorials thru 2000. It is, "Looking Through LINCOLN CENTS, A chronology of a Series, By Charles D. Daughtrey, NLG I have it, and am equally proud of the chance to have been able to buy it, as well. If you look on the first page, or home, on the site, you will see it, and the means you can use to buy it. I recommend it very highly, not because He is "lurking, or looking," but because that is how I feel.
Dick

I have the 2010 Red Book and Warman's Coin and Paper Money " In full color" .. I EBay and since it is soooooo not making the money.. It might be a little while, I think I will take your advice and put Mr.Daughtrey's fine work on my "To Buy list." Right up there with a haircut.. It's a toss up. I think the book will win out.. lol..
I am experimenting with my photography.. I took Photography in collage.. It was my minor..Keep in mind that I took photography along with a computer class.. The OS of the day was DOS..The photography was film. chemicals and the darkroom...
I have to experiment and figure out new techniques to show you what I am seeing. [img] My Queen of coins[/img]

Tig, I see your assistant is "perusing closely, the details of your pages of flips".
Yes you will find there is a difference, (but there is one, or two, who still use FILM)!
It is faster, and less smelly, and messy, but it has it's headaches, too!
FWIW, I hope you mash the staples down flat, on those flips
i use pages, too, but there are many, many in boxes, I made to store them in. About 150/box!
Yes, Chucks book will give you much valuable info, and good pictures, as well for reference.
Dick
