This is the reference book for elongated coins rolled between 1960 - 1978. It has a numbering system for each engraver/roller. For example, Dottie Dow's coins were numbered DOW-1...DOW-326 and Chester Rogers' were numbered ROG-1...etc. 

 

Most collectors refer to this book as Rosato's book or Rosato's Encyclopedia so I suggest the Numista code be Rosato .

After asking a few people, we think the Numista code should be ROS. 

 

ie ROS# DOW-16

There is a secondary title for this book:

 

A Complete and Authentic Description of All Modern Elongateds 1960-1978

Haha. Thank you

Forgot the book photo. Suggested Numista reference code = ROS

 

Example of one cataloged in book: N#376312

 

The book has over 4000 coins and each have catalog number. Great reference book for elongated coins as well as its supplement book.
