Want to know which coins to collect? Want general info on the history of a particular type of coin? This book will give you that info in summary form. Want to know how much your coins are worth? Then buy the blue book version or subtract about 2/3rds off the prices listed in the red book to give you an idea of what a coin dealer may offer you for your coins. Keep in mind that grading, while subjective, is important when it comes to the value of a coin. A coin in its natural state of wear is worth more than a "lower grade" coin (one that has been cleaned with solvents or dipped to the point the luster is mostly gone or artificially toned or drilled through or dinged or scratched or tooled/whizzed). Please note, however, that there are times when buying a lower grade coin may be the only practical way to fill a hole in your particular coin set. For example, I wanted a certain coin for my type set but there was no way I could afford it and still pay my bills so I bought a legal copy of it to fill the hole in my collection. ("Legal copies" are stamped "copy" on the coin.) Problem coins and copies of coins have value and fill a need for many of us in the hobby who aren't affluent but first learn about the coins you want to collect so you can tell the difference between a natural coin and one that's not.If your goal is to make quick money selling coins, then don't collect, play the precious metals market and use the red book and blue book as guides for highly marketable coins like the American Silver Eagle and go online to determine the current melt value for silver to determine when to buy and when to sell. Otherwise, collect because you love the look of coins or enjoy putting coin sets together.
