<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 109856, member: 4552"]It is very much time for you to just go out and buy a book on coins. As already noted get a copy of the Red Book. That's what the book is called. The latest version out is dated 2006 and is the 59th Edition. Depending on what you are willing to spend on a coin education, that book is available at many book stores, on the internet under Whitman, coin stores or hobby shops and/or coin shows. Since your new to coin collecting, you will need to know what you are talking about as to condition, quantity minted, etc. </p><p>If you don't want to spend much money just yet, hit garage / yard sales, estate sales or flea markets and look for an older issue of that book or any coin book. If it's an older issue, the prices will not be up to date but you'll learn about coins anyway. Another thing is to read a lot of stuff on this and similar coin forums. Ask a lot of questions and don't be afraid to ask anything. We all should learn something new every day and some of the simplist questions come out to be a learning experience for all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
