Yet another great book from a great numismatist!Review date: 2009-11-19 Rating: 10 out of 10I've read this book from cover to cover many times, each round I learn something I missed on the earlier read. This book is a MUST in any serious numismatist's library!Best Book EverReview date: 2009-03-07 Rating: 10 out of 10While the Red book is extremely necessary to any numismatist's library; this book gives you more information on every single bit of American coinage: from colonial coins to the Lincoln penny. This book shows a magnificent admount of life-long research.Amazing Resource, Mr. Bowers Has Created a Gem!Review date: 2009-01-23 Rating: 10 out of 10This book is a tome of valuable and perhaps profitable information!!!
The best thing about this book is its layout. I read the book pretty much cover to cover, but the great thing is that after you have finished the book you can go back and find specific things very easily! I recently started investing in proof coins and wanted to brush up on some of the finer points. In this book it is simple to find a specific topic and read until your heart's content.
The depth of this book is also astounding, Mr. Bowers has so much experience and his command of the history of coins is amazing. If you want to expand your knowledge of coins, this book will open a flood gate of information!
The only downside is that I do not think that this is a book for a beginner in the field. It will overwhelm them with it's sheer size and depth of information. A Red book is a good starting place.
Thank you Mr. Bowers for a book that I will read for a VERY long time to come!The Expert's Guide to Collecting and investing in Rare Coins: Secrets of SuccessReview date: 2008-12-31 Rating: 10 out of 10Mr. Bowers Does it again... This is at least his Fourth iteration on this subject; "Collecting rare coins for profit-1975";"Common Sense Coin Investment: A Revealing Look at Profitable Coin Investment Opportunities-1982";and "A Buyer's Guide to the Rare Coin Market- 1992" and they have all been good and well worth reading, but this one is by far the best! From the basics and common sense, to deep insights gleened from over 60 years in the business, Mr. Bowers puts it all together and presents it in a well organized and very readable format the invites..., No encourages you to read from cover to cover (even if you don't collect colonial coppers or Broken bank notes) In all an outstanding and very readable reference!
