The Coin Collecting Red Book

Coin collecting is a great hobby, but it can be time-consuming. To be a successful collector, it’s important to take your time and do your research before making purchases. It’s also a good idea to buy only coins you’re confident about.

A coin collecting red book can help you get started in the right direction when it comes to building a collection. This reference guide can give you valuable information about a coin’s value, mintage history, and more.

The Red Book (also known as the Guide Book of United States Coins) is a popular and useful coin collecting reference guide published annually since 1946. It surveys American coins and offers retail values for each grade in the book’s seven-grade system.

Originally published by Whitman Publishing, the Red Book has been a mainstay of the coin-collecting industry for more than 65 editions. It has become the most widely used coin price guide in the world and continues to be the most trusted and respected reference guide for collectors.

Today, Whitman Publishing is continuing the Yeoman tradition of releasing a new Red Book each year. Senior Editor Jeff Garrett and Research Editor Q. David Bowers have worked on the 78th edition of the Red Book.

It’s an excellent resource for seasoned collectors and newcomers alike. This coin price guide contains a wealth of historical and technical data, grade-by-grade values, auction records, high-resolution photographs, and detailed specifications for nearly every American coin ever made.
