5.0 out of 5 stars
Good addition to the coin book library,
By
This review is from: Collecting Coins (Hardcover)
This book is well organized with 160 monochrome pictures (taken by the author) with physical descriptions and historical background. One major plus is that this book is that even though they are included it does not concentrate on Greek and U.S. coins.
Contents: * How coinage Began * Greek Coins * Roman and Byzantine coins * English Coins 1. Ancient Britain to Charles II * English Coins 2. Charles II to Elizabeth II * Britain's Modern Coinage * Error, Freaks and Forgeries * Condition, Rarity and Value * Coins and Metal Detecting * What shall I Collect? * Looking After Your Collection Emphasis is that if you have a bunch of coins but no plan, that it is an "accumulation" and not a "collection."
