5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST for beginners and experianced Numismatics as well., May 10, 1999
By A Customer
Excellent Pictures make it easy to ID a coin. Studying its History of each coin makes you sound like you know what you are talking about wheather you do or not. This book gives you a feeling of cofidience when buying your first coins, as well as a excellent reference. This beginner HIGHLY recommends it. It has helped me to make money buying from my local coin shop and selling on Amazon.coms auctions. Can I have some discounts now Amazon?

5.0 out of 5 stars The single best reference for any coin collector, February 8, 1999
This review is from: A Guide Book of United States Coins: 1999 (Hardcover)
At our popular Internet rare coin shop, we receive many e-mail requests for information regarding a myriad of details concerning rare coins, such as their precious metal content; who designed a particular coin; what years was a specific design of coin minted; what do the letters "D" "CC" or "S" mean on a coin; what is the approximate value of a specific coin; what is "bullion;" etc.

The single most comprehensive and easiest to use reference for answering such questions remains this wonderful book which also holds a record as the longest running annual coin publication. Earlier editions have even become collector items with their own strong following. This is the first book anyone beginning to collect rare coins should purchase. The second is "Photograde." Between these two exceptionally well-written books many insights and reliable facts about rare coin collecting are presented.

This book is more commonly called "The Red Book," and is seldom out of arm's reach. It is unusual to go a day without opening our copy to check at least one fact or review one detail. This is a definite FIVE STAR book on coin collecting which carries our strongest possible purchase recommendation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The first coin book anyone should buy, September 29, 1998
The "Red Book" is the first coin anyone should buy when beginning to collect US coins. It provides retail values (which very few people pay) that give you a good idea of RELATIVE value of coins. It isn't perfect, but you still can't live without it if you are a coin collector.
