<p>[QUOTE="crystalk64, post: 31228, member: 1873"]Years ago the Red Book was the collector guide and the Black Book was a dealer guide. If you compare prices in both you will agree the Red Book will make you feel much better about your collection. I should still point out that the Redbook is a year behind as it is published the summer before so purchasing a monthly Coin Prices guide or a grey sheet is much more accurate according to todays coins values. I buy the RedBook every year and it has also become a collectable book? The Redbook is a GREAT reference guide but that would be about the extent of my faith in either book. The Dealers Gray Sheet is very very up to date but a little costly compared to other publications. None the less, the more you read and study, the better off you will be as a collector. Personally I avoid the Black book! Good luck with your new hobby![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
