Customer Reviews

The Reliable Redbook
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.

Coins
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.

Invaluable Price Guide
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.
