Sometimes I wish I lived in a place with more history. No way I could find anything that cool around here (north Alabama) |

MeadowviewCollector: I'd love to learn more about the colonial issues, I probly need to get a couple books on that subject as well.
Are there a lot of good pictures in the EAC grading book? I love to see some nice cents, especially the ones that I may never be able to obtain.
Westcoin: Is the noyes book I purchased in color, or is it in b&w?
What are some books you'd recommend that won't devastate my wallet like the noyes books? It seems all books about large cents have gone up significantly in the past few months. |

So in the past few months, I've spent more money on books than actual coins..
Heres the list of books I'm trying to get ahold of:
Penny Whimsy by Sheldon
United State Copper Cents 1816-1857 by Howard Newcomb The CENT Book by John D. Wright Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of Early US Cents 1793-1814 by Walter Breen The Die Varieties of United States Large Cents 1840-1857 by Grellman United States Large Cents 1793-1814 by Noyes
United States Large Cents 1816-1839 by Noyes
Grading Guide for Early American Copper Coins (2014)
Yesterday I bought the EACs grading book and today I scored a used copy of Noyes second book for $75 on eBay! I'm out of the game for a while while I recoup these funds (life of a college kid) but in the meantime I'll try to identify the variety of the cents I already have!
I can't wait for the Noyes book to get here! I've heard nothing but good things about it.
EDIT: Here is a good deal on a pair of the Noyes books http://www.ebay.com/itm/United-Stat...em1e8f54e0de |

Hate to revive an old thread..
I keep most of my stash of copper pennies in these type cans in the closet. So far, so good.
Around here, I used to be able to get the bigger .50 cal cans for $5 and the skinnier cans for $3. You can't hardly find them under $10 anymore. |

While I'm researching the Peoples Republic of China and Taiwan, do they share the same coinage?
Can't seem to find a clear answer through googling. |

Lately I've been working on a list of countries that had their own coins for the year 1996.
I know I've got some countries listed that did not produce coinage for the year 1996 and am probably missing some countries that did.
It would be awesome if someone more knowledgeable of the countries of the world than me could look over/proof my list.
Here is what I've got so far: Afghanistan Albania Algeria Angola Argentina Armenia Aruba Australia Azerbaijan Azores Baden Bahamas Bahrain Bangladesh Barbados Bavaria Belgian Congo Belgium Belize Bermuda Bhutan Biafra Bolivia Bosnia-Herzegovina Botswana Brazil Bremen British Virgin Islands Brunel Bulgaria Burundi Cambodia Cameroon Cape Verde Cayman Islands Central African Republic Central African States Ceylon Chad Chile China, People's Republic Colombia Comoros Congo Free State Congo Republic Congo, Democratic Republic Cook Islands Costa Rica Crete Croatia Cuba Curacao Cyprus Czech Republic Danish West Indies Danzig Denmark Djibouti Dominican Republic East Africa East Hopei Ecuador Egypt El Salvador Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Estonia Ethiopia Faeroe Islands Falkland Islands Figi Finland France French Polynesia Gabon Georgia Germany Ghana Gibraltar Great Britain Greece Greenland Guadeloupe Guatemala Guernsey Guinea Guinea-Bissau Guyana Haiti Hamburg Honduras Hong Kong Hungary Iceland India Indonesia Iran Iraq Ireland Republic Iran Barat Isle Of Man Israel Italy Jamaica Japan Jersey Jordan Katanga Kazakhstan Keeling Cocos Islands Kenya Kiau Chau Kiribati Korea Korea-North Korea-South Kuwait Laos Latvia Lebanon Lesotho Liberia Libya Leichtenstein Lithuania Lubeck Luxembourg Macao Macedonia Madagascar Madeira Islands Malawi Malaya Malaysia Maldive Islands Mali Malta Martinique Mauritania Mauritius Mecca Mexico Moldova Monaco Mongolia Montenegro Morocco Mozambique Myanmar Namibia Nepal Netherlands Netherlands Antilles New Caledonia New Guinea New Hebrides New Zealand Nicaragua Nigeria North Viet Nam Norway Oldenburg Oman Pakistan Palestine Panama Papua New Guinea Paraguay Peru Philippines Poland Portugal Prussia Qatar &Dubai Qatar Rhodesia Romania Rwanda Saarland San Marino Sarawak Saudi Arabia Serbia Seychelles Shah Dynasty Sierra Leone Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Solomon Islands Somalia Somaliland South Africa Southern Rhodesia Spain Sri Lanka State Of South Viet Nam Sudan Suriname Swaziland Sweden Switzerland Syria Taiwan Tajikistan Tanzania Thailand The Gambia Tibet Timor Togo Tonga Tonkin Transnistria Trengganu Trinidad &Tobago Tunis Tunisia Turkey Turkmenistan Tuvalu Uganda Ukraine United Arab Emirates United States Uruguay Uzbekistan Vanautu Vatican City Venezuela Viet Nam West African States Western Samoa Yemen Republic Zaire Zambia Zanzibar Zimbabwe
If I've missed any countries, or have one listed that did not exist in 1996, please let me know!
Thank you all!
