Books of great value to compliment the book Coin Collecting Starts Here
First, I would like to introduce my own book “Coin Collecting Starts Here”. It is certainly the cheapest (and I truly believe, most valuable) coin collecting book available! I hope you will take the time to see the describtion of it at the end of this article.
Collecting coins is an interesting, truly educational and profitable hobby. Collecting may at times, provide a special comfort to the individual collector, as they are able to gather a collection of familiar objects, as well as build a repository of valuable assets. Successful coin collectors take a lot of time to learn everything there is to know about numismatics. Good sources of information are books, magazines, newsletters and brokers who can pass on information and news, when it happens. By using the resources a person can act fast before other collectors who want the same thing get the information first. If a person tries to collect without knowing the basics, he will never succeed in this hobby. Thats why I recommed theese books.
A number of coin collecting books are available in shops today. One of them is”Coin Collecting For Dummies”, which gives beginners a general overview of the joys and thrills of coin-collecting. This book gives readers an overview of just how relaxing and inexpensive it is to engage in the hobby of coin-collecting. It also gives first-time collectors sound advice on choosing and buying the right coins for your collection, deciding what to collect, sorting your collection, pricing and selling your coin, as well as analyzing your coin’s grades and exact values. If you buy the right coins and the market improves, there should be a chance you’ll make some profit on your collection. The book opens the eyes of readers to the thousands of possibilities coin-collecting offers collectors, and provides individuals with vital information as well on aspects such as history, geography, analytical and observation skills. “Coin Collecting For Dummies” should serve as a valuable reference material for both beginners and veteran collectors.
Another book, “World of Coins and Coin Collecting” , is a book which is referred to as the ”Complete guide to contemporary numismatics that collectors and investors turn to”. As coin collecting may at times be a head-turning and confusing endeavor, this book will offer expert advice on what to do, and which mistakes to avoid. This book also delves on vital developments in the coin-collecting industry during the last quarter century, and focuses considerable attention as well on the role of public and private libraries. This handy book offers pertinent advice for both beginners and expert coin collectors.

As a yearly purchaser of the Redbook, I know what I am going to receive. The Redbook is a wealth of reliable information concerning coins.
If you have a question concerning US coins, the Redbook is the first place you look.
The price is right and the reliability can’t be questioned.

This, of course, is the standard guide for US coins and has no equal. The only criticism is that the advanced date of 2010 is misleading as the book covers through 2008 with a few early and incomplete 2009 entries. Call it 2009.

A buyers guide to the Pricing of coins at todays values! A little on the High for someone wanting to Sell coins and Overpriced for Buyers! A combination of the Blue Book and this Red book would give a fairer value! Not For Wholesale Buying or selling!

In case there is a hyperinflation due to global influences against the dollar, we are purchasing silver dollars and bars on ebay. The added incentive to do this is to enjoy the numismatic experience in collecting.
In particular, the collection of US Silver Proof sets has been enjoyable, and the book is certainly a good guide to these sets, as well as other available silver investment vehicles. The sections on the American Eagle and the Morgan Silver Dollars gives one a quick lesson on the rare more valuable dates.
