Customer Reviews

World Coins

Very interesting, a lot of additional information. Thus far I haven't found that world coin worth thousands, but I have enjoyed looking the old coins up in here.

Great book to rate your own collection or for ebay purchases

Offers a quick way to get a coin value in an easy to read format. IT does not provide instruction on grading coins for the novice, so get an additional book if you want further instruction on that.

Accurate Guide Loaded With Photos

As a collector for over 40 years, this was the first book i bought my daughter on the subject. She loves the wonderful pictures of tthe thousands of coins she may not see elsewise. If it could be better these photos could be color on glossy paper, but then i guess it would cost $80 instead of $8!

Seems comprehensive

Made the mistake from "One World" to "World Coins" and really don't regret it. The old family drawers have some foreign coins. Now I have a reference,
