<p>[QUOTE="TheBigH, post: 730435, member: 9866"]The information to be gleaned from the internet is sparse for non-U.S. coins, and when information is available, the true has to be separated from the false. Unless the coins you're buying are very cheap or the reference is absolutely beyond your price range, you should buy the book before the coin. If the latter is true, you should visit your local library as borgovan mentioned. Of course, you can also join the ANA and borrow books from their numismatic library program for the cost of shipping (which is very low for book lending).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
