In
addition to our black cover “Leatherette” 3rd edition
of the Top 100 Morgan Dollar Varieties: The VAM Keys
by Michael S. Fey, Ph.D. & Jeff Oxman ($24.95), we also
printed 100 copies of a large 8 ½” by 11”
format Leather Bound Collector’s Edition. This
2nd edition has raised spines, embossed gold letters on the
covers, gilt edges, antiqued end pages, acid free paper and
a silk ribbon to bookmark your place. Each edition was hand
signed by the authors in 1997, contained a special photo insert
(not published elsewhere) and each was hand serial numbered
from 1 to 100. This Leather Bound Collector’s Edition
quickly sold out for $100/copy in 1997. From time to time, we
buy back copies from deceased collectors, or collectors deaccessing
their library. If you are interested in obtaining a copy, please
contact Dr. Fey by Email
to check availability and/or to get on the waiting list.

In
1999, we produced a 3rd edition of the Top 100 book
in both a perfect bound and a spiral bound version. The perfect
bound book has also sold out, but the more popular spiral
bound copies are still available. If you wish to order one,

In
1997, RCI worked with Carlisle Development Corporation to develop
the Top 100 CD, the CD version of our revolutionary
new pocket book. At the time, this was also a revolutionary
new product in that you could see images of Top 100
coins photographed by Tom Mulvaney, still one of the best photographers
in the hobby, in a much larger size on your computer screen
than the book. You could literally walk across the doubling
of the serifs, dates, letters, and mint marks of each variety.
The details of the images were absolutely incredible! A later
version was developed that could become an add-on to Carlisle’s
Coin Collector’s Assistant. The Coin Collector’s
Assistant program allows you to monitor and store your collection
electronically, so that all the information you would ever need
about your collection is at your fingertips. I still use the
Coin Collector’s Assistant and love it!

This
CD was designed as an attribution guide, a pricing guide,
and as a trainer to assist you in recognizing all 41 different
1878 8TF varieties. As with the Top 100 CD, the images
are incredible, and the trainer is fun to use. This CD will
operate with the most current PC based operating system. It’s
software developer, John Baumgart , can provide personal assistance
so that you’ll be absolutely satisfied. To order, please

In a
similar format to Oxman and Hartnett’s 1878 8-TF
Morgan Dollar Attribution Guide, this handy 8 ½’
x 11” reference book will show you how to attribute
every one of the 16 known 1878 7/8 (7 over 8) Tailfeather
(TF) Morgan silver dollars. Also included is information and
photos for the 7 known 1878 7-TF B1 reverses, those that have
a longer center arrow shaft than other 1878 7-TF Morgan dollars.
You may have a rare Mint State example of the 1878 7/3-TF
VAM 44 in your collection right now and not even know it!
As an ordinary 7TF, it may be worth only $50 in Mint State
60, but as a VAM 44 it’s actually worth $5000. This
is the ultimate guide to attribute 1878 7/8-TF
dollars. I highly recommend it. Unfortunately, the 1878 7/8-TF
Attribution Guide is currently out-of-print, but will be reprinted
soon. To get on the waiting list, please click.
