<p>[QUOTE=&quot;marid3, post: 1607727, member: 35968&quot;]I think two books would do the trick, the RedBook and the CherryPickers Guide.&nbsp; These are really essentials for any collector and money very well spent (they&#039;ll repay you very quickly).&nbsp; While these two books will list Date/Mintmark combinations and most major varities, collecting is very particular.&nbsp; For example, some only want toned coins (rings, rainbows, other) in their collection, or non-toned.&nbsp; Some want only MS coins, versus circulated. Of the former group, some will only want the highest-grade (must be very wealthy to have that taste), etc.&nbsp; For the latter, some only prefer coins with a history (previous owners).&nbsp; I guess the point is that while a book will give you a great list, the possibilities are endless, and you&#039;ll need a whole library for that.&nbsp; Reading and participating here at CT will help too<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Happy collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
