<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 752296, member: 4552"]Coin magazines are usually the most up to date and sometimes have articles about a certain coin that may never reach a book. Also, once a book is printed, unless a newer edition comes out, it is rather limited to new information. Of course if you just go with only coin magazines, there too you would be rather limited to what they say. In other words you should try for a little of each.</p><p>Then too is the availability. If you use the internet you could find almost any books or magazines. At coin shows or coin stores, usually a limited variety. </p><p>Remember about anything through the mail. Pending on where you live, ordering anything that is visible in a mail box is like a flag saying rob this place. Most coin magazines are sent without a covering to hide the contents making it a visible statement as to your interests. Gun, coin, knife, etc magazines visible to the world is just not safe in many areas. And not all US postal people are the safest individuals either so when they see such information, it's anyone's guess who it is passed on to.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
