The official Red Book is and has always been the most up to date and accurate collection of retail prices for all U.S. coins. It covers every U.S. coinage ever made including gold coins, commemoratives, tokens, bullion coins, proof and mint sets. This is the only book you'll need to put a retail value to your collection.

This book is the definitive coin book each and every year. Does not give currency information or foreign coin info, but for US coins it is simply the best.
