<p>[QUOTE="Billy Kingsley, post: 682459, member: 19456"]Not Very, I must admit. I have last year's Red Book (is there anyone who doesn't have a Red Book? :goofer<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and that is my basic stuff for US coins. I got the Krause 20th Century world coin guide for my birthday last year, and I got the 21st century version as well for myself. In addition to that, I have the Red Book publication that covers world coins from 1850-1964. I also have a guide to paper money of the USA but I can't recall the name of it right now. Those are the only true books I own, but, I have a year's worth of <i>The Numismatist</i> and scattered issues of :Coins, CoinAge, CoinValues, Paper Money Values, and the SPMC publication. All of which save the last title are from early 2008-current. I get them all at the retail stores and I don't go out that often. I did manage to get a complete set of WorldWide Coins from 2008-current, and I just got my first issue as a subscriber this month. The SPMC issues I have are from 2004-2006, and were given to me as samples.
