<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 527724, member: 4552&quot;]I agree with you that there is probably no better all around information book on the market. There are presently a lot of books on coins but most are just repetitive of info available everywhere. Lots of people jumping on the band wagon so to speak with books on coins. </p><p>And very true that at one time there was only the Red Book. I remember when they first came out. There was only Whitman making folders for coins and then that Red Book. Not sure but I suspect that Whitman may have invented the grades of coins. No one else would say that a coin that is actually poor is good. </p><p>I&#039;ve complained to Whitman many times over the years about why that book is one year in advance. Why not call it what it is? Answer is just tradition. The first one came out in 1946 and was called 1947 so they do the same from that time on. </p><p>And always be carefull of some of the info in that book. Many errors are now common since that book is so mass produced.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
