Book Reviews of Profitable Coin Collecting

Book Review: An excellent resource
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this book because I want to make money with coins more than collect them for the sake of collecting. While I certainly love coins and appreciate their history, my main interest is making a profit. So I bought this book with that in mind.

I was not let down. This is a well-written book on high-quality paper, complete with lots of photos. I was slightly disappointed that the book didn't really provide "Buying and Selling Strategies" as I thought it would and as it promised. It did, however, show how one can truly outdo the S&P and even simple bullion buying.

It described the really rare and valuable coins and what to look for. It even discusses commemoratives.

All in all, I find this a valuable book for the serious coin collector and/or investor. It has a ton of information on numerous topics, including grading. It lacked an index, which would have made it more useful.

Highly recommended.

- Susanna K. Hutcheson
