    You very quickly recoup the costs. Cherrypickers' vol II paid for itself within three hours of my cracking it open. image

    Yes. I love the numismatic books. Do a search of "Book Review" and you will see some of my handiwork.

    My wife thinks I'm a book collector who sometimes collects coins. I guess that's because the books are more visible.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    I collect some coin books (Morgan dollars), and also old PCGS pop reports. I still need one from 1987 (and 1986 if they were produced that early.)
    When in doubt, don't.

    Most serious collectors have a reference library but I'm not sure that this would count as collecting books.

    I just won this one the other night and am looking forward to receiving it...... But to answer the question I think your asking; for me the answer is no.
