Roger deWardt Lane spent a great deal of his life to accomplish a collection as well as a detailed documentation of it, which resulted in the

 

ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SMALL SILVER COINS

 

with sub title

 

Brother can you spare a dime

 

It describes all approximately dime size silver coins from the last 200 years, issued in the whole world.

That's a wonderful compilation. I wonder if anyone has taken the task to update it with non-silver dime sized coins?

A classic - always nice to see it mentioned again (there's another reference to it in the forums here).

 

I put in a lot more restrictions in my collection (e.g. I would not consider a Carribean silver proof 1c to count as a dime though it is silver and close in size), though he was likely at the point where it was about including everything and everything - a great goal if you've got the patience and time :-)

I could not find it, have tried several searches, but nothing showed, so I thought I'd mention it here. Oh well, better once more than not at all.
