By A Customer
This review is from: A Guide Book of United States Coins 2003: The Official Red Book (Spiral-bound)
While more pictures are always nice, this book gives me everything I was looking for, its well put together and its certainly a great price. I recently inherited a modest coin collection and this book has answered just about every question I had. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to anyone who is just getting into the coin collecting hobby.

Great Selection,

I bought this book for my husband for Christmas and he couldn't put it down. As a beginner collector of coins he spent hours looking up various prices of coins he had already bought and of coins he wants to buy in the future. It was definitely a great gift!

A Guidebook of United States Coins by Yeoman,
By Joseph S. Maresca "Dr. Joseph S. Maresca CPA,... (Bronxville, New York USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: A Guide Book of United States Coins 2003: The Official Red Book (Spiral-bound)
This work has been printed and re-printed for years. It is wellorganized. There is a fair concensus of coins represented. This book is a "must read" for coin buffs and persons seeking to establish a fair valuation for any collection. If you own a coin handbook, eventually it will have to be replaced in order to keep current with the most recent evaluations. Yeoman distinguishes between grades of coins, alphabetic abbreviations and the quantity minted. For instance, in the year 1909 alone, there are at least 4 different coins. i.e. Lincoln Head, VDB, S and SVDB. Lastly, the author enunciates U.S. Coin Standards in terms of diameter, thickness, gross weight, grains and thousandths (fineness measurement). Purchase this book if you have a coin collection either large or small.
