picked up 3 books on counterfeit detection today (wednesday)

LanceNewmanOCC

.
Counterfeit mis-struck and unofficial us coins - don taxay - looked old so i got it for $5. Printed in 1976 and may very well have been sitting on the shelf since then

numismatic forgery - charles m. larson - 2004

us gold counterfeit detection guide - bill fivaz - spiral bound. 2005 - hundreds of images. looks extremely promising

i was looking for "assassination of counterfeiters" by CIA co-authored by NSA, but to no avail

i got all 3 for less than $30 and i am really looking forward to seeing what they have to offer.

not sure if you all are aware, but you can borrow books from your local library, and heres a kicker, you can request books through thier share program, kind of a read it before you buy it thing. there is a website i used to have saved that had just about every book ever printed and what library system it would be shared through, it takes a while to get to you, but its really worth the effort.

i've done this (r. t. kiyosaki's rich dad poor dad series) but would love that website you mention. i'll put it on the ever-growing list of things to do lol

Actually Taxay's stuff is pretty good as well.

All 3 books are good additions to one's personal library. There is also a video of a talk by Larson (see coinvideo.com) that is a good companion to his book.
