[QUOTE="PlanoSteve, post: 3621883, member: 91609"][USER=105524]@Nancy alicea[/USER], welcome to CT! & congrats on your journey into the world of "coin collecting". :happy: The suggestion by [USER=92092]@John Skelton[/USER] above regarding the "Red Book" is great advice. You will be impressed with the amount of information to be gleaned from it, but since the coin [B][I]"values"[/I][/B] posted in it are [B][I]useless[/I][/B], it doesn't have to be the latest edition. If it's in the last 2-3 years that's OK & you can find them at used book resellers. (Mine is a 2015 edition & I have no plans to upgrade yet.) Even if you don't plan on continued collecting, it's still a great read regarding US coinage. Have fun! :happy::singing:;) Btw, Stevearino's suggestion to start a "type set" is a great idea!
