I bought this product to help identify some Newfoundland and Canada coins I acquired many years ago. I didn't need the 2014 current coin values, I just wanted the mintage information and silver content data. It is an excellent reference. I would recommend it, or a more recent or current version if specific, current coin value was important to you. Compared to the U.S. Coins Red Book, it is not as detailed. In defense, it is a reasonably priced guide that covers a lot more ground with U.S., Mexico, Canada, Provincials and Colonial coinage all included.
North America coin prices guide and Standard Catalog of World Coins are probably the top 2 best price guides. You will be happy with either one. The North America coin prices guide that I bought was brand new and never used. Not bad for 13 years old. Very happy with the information and additional pictures with a great price.
Verified purchase: Yes
This book was even more helpful an informative than I had hoped for! Not only were US coins listed from the first colonial coins up to date. Also included are great guides for Canada and Mexico, both just as comprehensive as the US listings. Of course gold coins prices are all listed; again inlcuding Canada and Mexico. GREAT for beginners or pro's. May also lead you to begin collecting US coins that you never knew existed or that you've never even seen, much less held! FIVE STAR GUIDE.
This book is the perfect North American guide to coins for the novice or the experienced collector. It is simple and easy to read and well documented for any hobbyist. The book is revised annually but the information I was seeking (mainly coin descriptions and mintage figures) was available in most recent editions, so buying the most up-to-date copy wasn't necessary. I am extremely happy with the purchase and the price I paid.
The only reason this book doesnt get an excellent rating is because it is a year old and not the most current but for the beginner like me it is great. It has very good pictures and descriptions of the coins and is so easy to find what you are looking for.
