Please try again later. Verified Purchase. This is an excellent text, but I this age of electronic books the pix need to be higher resolution. Publisher is putting minimal effort in this effort.
Here's an example of an untouched photo. For a reference book focused on imagery, it's really poor. By kculp on January 20, Images in this review.
This book is chockablock full of really super information. As such it weighs at least ten pounds. I haven't owned a red book in years, at least 10 likely more mostly because I didn't get much out of it. I bought this because I read that a new section was to be included about So-Called Dollars which is true, but more on that later. The Red Book, as most of you already know, is the authoritative general reference used by coin collectors and dealers to get general, and some specific information about pretty much all of the coins issued by and for the people of the United States and British colonies and its territories.
As we've matured as a nation and indeed as the research has grown more and more categories of numismatics have become sought after and eventually legitimized by inclusion in this book. The Mega Red book is the culmination of what we "know" about the state of United States coins and coin-like material. One of the excellent things about this expanded format is that it gives the editors the opportunity to become downright chatty in their discussions of coins which makes the articles pertaining to their respective subjects that much more lively, informative and entertaining.
The book begins with a broad overview and then drills down by topic to include just about everything you'd want to know on a casual basis.
The book also includes quite detailed grading information for the various coin series and pricing information estimates and some actual auction results. Modern bullion coins are given their own sections too. What brought me to the book, frankly, were the appendices, and specifically the section on so-called dollars. This was edited by Jeff Shevlin who is generally considered the world's leading expert on the topic. He has chosen a broad cross section of medals that are listed in the book "So-called Dollars" by Hibler and Kappen, comprising around medals.
Many of those included are rare, some virtually unobtainable, but others are readily obtainable for very little money. Given the limited space Mr. Shevlin was given, he did an excellent curatorial job. My only quibble would be that he did not include more of the 'monetary" issues, specifically the Bickford and Eutopia dollars. This reviewer particularly welcomes such a development as one does get the impression that the US Mint has gone into overdrive in the production of nominally monetary, rather uninspiring, modern commemorative coins that will never find circulation and are produced in such large numbers that they will likely never become rare.
Medals and so-called dollars, on the other hand, because they have only recently come into their own despite having been produced years, and in some cases more than a century, ago are surprisingly affordable and fun to collect despite, or because of, their oftentimes excruciating rarity.
I do have one overarching criticism of this book and that is that the editors neglected to include an introductory discussion of what is new in the book. Doing so would have drawn collectors to this 'new' material thus reinforcing their decision to include it. This is inexplicable and sorely missed. Nefvertheless the chatty, informative style in which the book reads, and the truly enormous and enormously valuable information it includes makes this a very, very, good inclusion to one's library.
A scholarly, well-crafted, and accessible text that provides a plethora of facts, figures, and engaging stories about our country's numismatic history, along with most of the contemporary knowledge necessary to become an advanced collector. I say 'most', because, as other reviewers have noted, some coins receive less attention than others. If you specialize in a particular series, e. But if you're looking for a comprehensive text that will provide the essentials on all U.
Nothing against the venerable Red Book, but the Mega Red provides five times as much information for less than three times the price. This one is Lot of information for reasonable price. This one is the value that you should sell at. The blue book is what a dealer will offer for purchase of your coins. BIG book with lot of info - but depending on the particular series - also lacks a lot of info.
The immediate standout is the IKE dollars. This is especially important due to the high premiums for certain versions. This book in indispensable for anyone interested in U. Certainty we all want to know how much are those old coins worth but the book is more than that. Lots of excellent photographs, quanties minted and grading guides add to the usefulness of this book.
The author's include some fascinating narratives about how our coinage system evolved from pre-colonial times. A excellent reference for seasoned collectors and a smart gift for inquisitive teens.
IF y ou collext on a regular basis, you have ot have the latest ediion of his standard industry guide. It's getting a little fatter every year but covers all the bases on coins.
Howeve,r if you are a collecto spcializing in a particular series--say Morgan Dollars or Sate Quarters or Silver Eagles--then I still recommend you get this guide plus one of the area specialty ooks by an acknowledged expert in that field. It has large print and I can easily look at the photographs of the coins and compare them with my coins without a magnifying glass.
EVERY coin is pictured and identified. It goes into detail when necessary and explains everything. This will help me identify and keep any rare coins instead of using them in stores. Thank you SO very much. See all reviews. Top reviews from other countries. This great offical guide has sold of 24 million copies It was just what I have been looking for. A wealth of information about USA best selling coins and their values from the very early days to present day; all in one place with full colour pictures.
It is as good as it looks and is the book most highly prized throughout the world, by dealers and collectors alike. Report abuse. Great value just what I required. This book is well worth buying and is very detailed. Ideal for the avid coin collector. I cannot live without it! Customers who viewed this item also viewed. Get everything you need. Back to top.
