Coin Collecting for DummiesReview date: 2009-10-21 Rating: 10 out of 10Excellent reference book for novice and experienced folks. Written with knowlege and a bit of humor, it is definately a "page turner".Coin Collecting For DummiesReview date: 2009-09-16 Rating: 10 out of 10Excellent introduction to coin collecting for the inexperienced collector, and a very good resource for the experienced coin collector. Easy to read, and well organized.Absolutely a Must HaveReview date: 2009-09-11 Rating: 10 out of 10Great facts in layman terms, explains all you need to know with a great twist of humor, not too much though, just enough. You will love it if you are new to numismatics or experienced.Verbose, circuitous route to take from knowing very little to knowing nothingReview date: 2009-07-07 Rating: 2 out of 10If you are not a coin collecting dummy before you read this book, you soon will be. This self debrication approach toward learning about a subject has reached an all time low. I think a better title for this book would be "How to Spend Hard Earnered Money on a Book about Coin Collecting for Dummies for Dummies". Better, more complete, better organized information can be found elsewhere. Just because one is a beginner with a subject, especially one which you would like to become your hobby doesn't mean it must be treated in a poor manner.
I recognize that some of the "Dummies" series books have been very helpful to alot of people whom have made great strides in learning about something they new nothing about. Let us not forget, most of all, the writers and publishers whose making money publishing "dummies books" was a big success.
Think of all the great possibilities yet unexplored: How to get DWI's for Dummies; "Building Shelves for Electric Radios Over Your Bathtub for Dummies"; Barbequeing with Charcoal Briquettes during the winter Months in your Tightly closed-up Kitchen for Dummies"; The Great American Diet of Fatty foods and high sugar beverages for Dummies".
To get back to seriousness. Amazon has several great books on coin collection for beginners to provide you with guidance to last for years. Also, you might try a couple of used books before settling on a couple of new ones for your library.
