The Coin Collector's Survival Manual
The New York Times said, "If followed closely, it should help readers do more than just survive: it should point the way to prosperity." Coin World referred to it as "a book that should be read before a single coin is bought-and read again and again!" Hank Gilman, business editor, Newsweek, called it "the book on the rare coin business you can't afford to be without." And it was an unprecedented three-time award winner from the prestigious Numismatic Literary Guild.
Now this bible of coin collecting and investing has been thoroughly revised and updated to offer the most current information and consumer protection advice available. Renowned coin expert Scott A. Travers tells you about:
- Advice on buying coins on the internet
- Looking at and grading coins just like the professionals
- Understanding the grading systems and avoiding bad certified coins
- Detecting counterfeit, altered, and doctored coins
- Reading between the lines in price guides and newsletters
- How not to get ripped off when dealing with dealers
- Getting the most out of attending coin shows and conventions
- The new tax laws and selling your coins
- Coin cleaning, preservation, storage, and safety
This brand-new edition examines the coin field from an insider's perspective and continues to break new ground in revealing the ins and outs of coin collecting and investing. Excellent photographs and detailed charts amplify the encyclopedic, clearly written text. The first book to truly tell it like it is in the rare coin marketplace of the '90s. The Coin Collector's Survival Manual is certain once again to be the premier book in the field.
