This is an excellent web site for classifying coins of the type considered.

However, I believe the webmaster must be asked directly if he has copyright permission for reproducing images from so many print sources without stating he has received permission.

The webmaster is a published author with numerous credits, so one would hope he protects the intellectual property of others, but there is no indication on his site (that I could find) that states he has permission. I will vote yes if he adds that permission.
