<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PaddyB, post: 1857831, member: 40017&quot;]Hi Jesse,</p><p><br /></p><p>Fair and reasonable comments. Most British collectors, particularly of the more modern stuff, would use the Spinks &quot;Coins of England and the United Kingdom&quot; as a start point - this book, which is over 600 pages long, is updated and reprinted every year to incorporate all the very latest issues as well as any updates on information or prices on older coins. It is not perfect, but certainly about as up to date as you could reasonably expect! Covers Iron age coins right through to the latest Fifty pence.</p><p><br /></p><p>It tends to be the more specialist books that are re-printed infrequently - such as the aforementioned treatise on Penny variations by Freeman. For these I suppose the knowledge changes only slightly over the years, and so a complete reprint is only necessary every 20 or 30 years.</p><p><br /></p><p>Paddy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
