1. A book on the modern minting process, and errors. Would like to learn more about how today's coins are minted and proper error identification. 2. There is now a "canadian redbook". Is it any good? 3. A good book on grading us coins, but more specifically, reading material on how to examine a coin to tell if its uncirculated. 4. A general book on collecting ancients, with some identification included. Unless I know otherwise, there isn't a one-for-all book on ancient id'ing is there? 5. I need some flips for a bunch of loose coins I have. Are Cowen's brand flips any good? Thanks.
Dr. James Wiles book is excellent. The modern minting process and U.S. minting errors and varieties (ANA correspondence course) This book has been recommended countless times (for good reason). The Official American Numismatic Association Grading Standards for United States Coins
