<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dimedude2, post: 632724, member: 17539&quot;]I have read a wide range of books, but my favorite and best overall is <u>The Expert&#039;s Guide to Collecting &amp; Investing in Rare Coins: Secrets Of Success</u> by Bowers.&nbsp; It is a very comprehensive book and I have learned a lot from his experiences and stories.&nbsp; There are times he is long winded and a bit arrogant, but the material and insight is very good.&nbsp; He definitely knows what he is talking about.&nbsp; He also has a very good book on Morgan silver dollars (Wittman).&nbsp; I would buy more books from Bowers to get a solid numistmatic education.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Travers&#039; books are also very good on grading and counterfeit detection. His material for the most part is very interesting.&nbsp; However, several of this books have the same material but written in different chapters or sections.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Naive or simple, Coin Collecting for Dummies is pretty darn good and entertaining reading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
