<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bob Evancho, post: 3397245, member: 84595&quot;]To help a new collector, I always suggest to buy the book before you buy the coin.&nbsp; Books are expensive.&nbsp; I have over $4,000 invested in books to help grade, authenticate and buys coins for my collection.&nbsp; If you want to study die characteristics for Morgan and Peace silver dollars before you buy a coin, go to VamWorld.com.&nbsp; When at a pawn shop, flea market, coin show (I&#039;ve seen counterfeit and altered coins there too) you can go on VamWorld.com to quickly check die varieties or characteristics.&nbsp; Always ask the dealer or seller if the rare coin is genuine and HOW DOES HE KNOW? Study a book on counterfeit and/or altered coins and Join a good coin club in your area to learn from others.&nbsp; Happy coin collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
