<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1909440, member: 26302"]I disagree with this advice to a point. If you only want a single volume of Sear, ONLY buy the 1988 edition. Its the last of the single volume editions, so it would be the latest number used as a "Sear number" if referencin the single volumes. Also, it would have the latest research short of the multi volume books. However, if you concentrate on a specific period, it really is very silly to not buy the Sear that applies to that range from the 5 volume set, along with the appropriate RIC.</p><p><br /></p><p>Complaining about an $80 expenditure that will most likely help you identify coins much rarer than most sellers think, or keep you from overpaying for a coin, all while making the coins you already own more enjoyable? Sounds like a bargain to me. There ARE quite a few bad coin books, anything from David Sear is not one of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
