Can anyone recommend a good guidebook for the Roosevelt dime series?

One would think that there would be a "Definitive Guide to Roosevelt Dimes,"
but there isn't. But who knows, there remain a lot of gaps in the
Whitman/Bowers "Official Redbook of..." series, so there's always a chance!
Meanwhile, what information do you seek?

Kevin Flynn: "The Authorative Reference on Roosevelt Dimes" (2002) Flynn
has several books on modern US series, all of them very good.

The book contains a year-by-year entry for each dime, with nice photographs
and statistics for each year. Half of the book is dedicated to varieties,
true doubling, overdates, RPMs, OMMs and other strikes of interest also with
very nice photographs. Obviously it does not cover dimes after 2001 nor any
of the die varieties or errors discovered after 2001.

It's in stock at amazon.com. It's just a click away...

Well, I just knew that I had missed something. Not "Definitive Guide", but
"Authoritative Reference" was the phrase I was looking for. Good catch, W.!

Duh, I sit corrected by "1787." My bad, sorry.
