    What # Cohen Book do you have?

    For the 1969 edition of “THE CLASSIFICATION AND VALUE OF ERRORS ON THE LINCOLN CENT” by Jean Cohen.

    I've started a log to see how many of the signed copies of "THE FIRST PRINTING OF THE FIRST EDITIONS" that were limited to 1,000 copies I can located. If yours is a signed copy what number is it?

    My copies are 385 & 439.

    the ANA library has 2 copies.. I will be checking out 1 of them soon
    I used to track any that were on sale.. but my computer went down and I lost that file.
    hope this helps...

      Interesting my last log update was that ABE's books had both #174 & 896.

      I had planned to got over to the ANA today and check the numbers in their books. But the city is on a blizzard lock down. Which is a good thing because I had jury duty today but it was canceled because of the storm.

      The World Cat.org shows that there are 32 copies in libraries. I'm surprised that number is so low.

              UPDATE:
              In November I saw a copy on Amazon for $55, told my wife "THAT is what I want for Christmas. A week latter she told me "Someone must have bought it, it is not there anymore." I told her it was OK....
              Today Christmas morning I open a box... and got number 297
              SHE bought it and was playing me.
              Got to love her.

                    What a coincidence! I also got a brick in my stocking... but, I am pretty sure that was the wife's way of reminding me that she wants me to fix the chimney.
