Review
The Red Book is the one reference that practically every U.S. coin collector and dealer keeps within arm's reach. Its information is vital for anyone interested in numismatic education. Today the 70th edition is even more relevant than the groundbreaking 1st edition was in 1946. --Jeff Garrett, President, American Numismatic Association
When coin collectors, friends, and family ask for the single best guide book on American coins, my answer is simple: The Official Red Book. Whether you want to determine values or research the history of a coin, if you're interested in United States coinage you should own this indispensable reference. It's what I use. --Edmund C. Moy, 38th Director, United States Mint (2006-2011)
