Book Description

October 1, 2000
The Rare Coin Estate Handbook is a step-by-step guide to estate planning for coin collectors. From record keeping to disposition methods, this handy primer cuts right to the chase on every topic. It is mostly written to the active collector, but pertinent chapters also have “Tips for Heirs” sections to aid non-numismatists in avoiding common pitfalls when inheriting a collection (and once you've read this book, its convenient size makes it perfect for inclusion alongside your collection in a bank vault or safe deposit box).

Written by three owners of Heritage Coin, the world’s largest and most respected rare coin dealer and auctioneer, The Rare Coin Estate Handbook offers sound advice and the experience gained from billions of dollars in coin transactions over four decades.


Editorial Reviews

"How comprehensive is this book?... told my daughter Sara to read it when it comes to handling my coin estate." -- Fred Weinberg, President of the Professional Numismatists Guild

Minimize inheritance headaches and heartaches... Experts' tips for winning encounters with coin dealers and the IRS. An important new guide. -- The Centinel (Quarterly Journal of the Central States Numismatic Society), Winter 2000

The book's introduction lays it on the line... Useful... Must reading for most of today's collectors. -- Coins Magazine, March 2001

This book, written by members of Heritage, echoes their commercial authority, but study by all collectors would be worthwhile. -- COINage 2001 Coin Collector's Yearbook

5.0 out of 5 stars Numismatic Book of the Year, April 26, 2001
This review is from: The Rare Coin Estate Handbook (Paperback)
My name is Lee Martin and I am the founder of the Numismatic Literary Guild. I have been privileged to review many books and usually they are most satisfactory, however few are regarded by me as N.L.G. Book of the Year material. This book, in my view, merits that thought. It is for everyone in numismatics and is even a "must have" for those who may become heirs, but lack the know-how of what to do next. Senior citizens, like myself, will be especially happy with the interesting stories of estates, etc. I had intended to just scan the book but it was so interesting I stayed with it until I had read it all. EVERYONE should own it if coins are involved in their activities. I highly recommend this book and wish to congratulate all involved in its production.

5.0 out of 5 stars There's no excuse not to buy this book!, May 6, 2001
This review is from: The Rare Coin Estate Handbook (Paperback)
I agree with Bill Murray (in the Editorial Reviews section) that not enough people will read this book. It is priced moderately enough that there should be no excuse for any collector not to buy one. As one who collects both coins and banknotes, I find very often too much emphasis is given to coins; very little to banknotes. Fortunately, the book does not omit banknotes. (Just a prejudice of mine!).
