    I agree. This will probably be the definitive book on the subject for years. The
    books for this series are all excellent.

    For varieties, the book is good but dated. Several more varieties have been listed by James Wiles since he put this book togather, but it is still the "BEST" out there. Our first copy started falling apart from the use but we were able to buy an unused replacement (still wrapped) copy for $40.

    Got the new book, some of my coins are there. But, I'd rather have the Wiles book. Perhaps in 2-3 years when the new book comes out, the proper corrections will be made. Ray image( Franie dudes are sucking it up and patting themselves on the back though.
    You only live life once, enjoy it like it's your last day. It just MIGHT be!
