Red book on coins October 8, 2008 This is the Red Book of coins need you say more. Got to love this book it just keeps getting better every year.
The gold standard ( pun intended) September 29, 2008 This is probably the best book for coin collectors who have a limited background and no one they feel they can trust. It gives an honest opinion based on recent coin sale prices and conditions.
The one part that I feel they could have given more value for your money is a more thorough description of coin condition with more pictures and examples, that said, I recomend this book to anyone (most all dealers have one on their premises whether for your benefit, or to help them in a sale, it says something). Lastly, the price is right. I would always recomend checking the price of spot metals before any purchase.
Coin book September 7, 2008 We are beginners in the hobby of coin collecting. "United States Coins" is a great help and we recommend it hightly.
For Coin Collectors July 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've relied on older editions of the Official Red Book for information about various coins that I've seen. Having been a coin collector since I was a child, I decided to purchse this book to see what information has changed or been updated. From time to time, I've found unexpected coins in my change and I enjoy being able to look them up to see what they are, what historical period they might represent, etc. It also helps me understand this country's history through its coinage.

This book was just what I was looking for. I have a coin collection that I want to sell and needed to find out the current market value. Easy to read, nice spiral binding.
