Does anyone know when the release date for the 2008 Redbook might be?

Thanks.

They released it at the Charlotte ANA show a week and a half ago.

Yep, Whitman had them at their booth.

They had them in Baltimore. Everyone seemed to have them for sale.

the coin books are getting as bad as Cars when it comes to model years.

Tootawl · March 25, 2007 11:50AM

I know what you mean. I was shocked to see a 2008 Red Book in the middle of March 2007.

Thanks all for the responses. I will look around for it.

I don't have a 2007, but I understand your sentiment. I get one every three to four years.

They are adding a section for more coins, I read this earlier in a thread several days ago.

The year thing does throw a lot of people off, but as been said before, it's like that for cars, other magazines, video games with years in them, etc.

Most of the local antique shops dealing in low-grade coins around me use it to price their coins. Anybody know if any series took a jump? I remember someone guessing wheaties would bump up a notch or two. I should send my son down to the local shop to pick up anything he sees before they up their prices to '08

2008 Red Book US Coins Spiral $14.95 plus a free gift

hope this is more what you are looking for. I as well only buy one every few years like to have two of them one to keep and work and in the car and one to keep at my house with the coins. just what I do it might also be that I have only been seriously collecting for almost 2 years and still learning but just what I do. but I as well see no reason to get one every year unless you collect them as well as coins.

Can someone please tell me what the 2008 Red Book is saying the Values are for the Franklin and Marine Corps commem proof dollars are?

slucas · March 26, 2007 11:37AM

Is this book really that useful? What about CDN, CoinValues, Numismedia? Even PCGS. Too many choices. Too many opinions.
What is the coin value bible?

Writersblock · March 26, 2007 4:37PM

Haven't seen one yet, but from what I've heard the 2008 Redbook lists silver President dollars

lordmarcovan · March 26, 2007 4:46PM

Hmm. I totally did not notice that at Charlotte.

combatmailman · March 28, 2007 1:12AM

I ordered mine from the whitman site and they have a release date of 10 April.

mheffner2 · March 28, 2007 3:38AM

I picked one up at the Baltimore show; my first since 2005. Better layout, much more enjoyable to reference and read, personally.

For Whitby:
Marine Proof PF-67 = $55
Franklin "Scientist" Proof PF-67 = $73
Franklin "Founding Father" Proof PF-67 = $65
>Per the 2008 Red Book

Whitby · March 28, 2007 4:37AM

you the man. Thanks alot!

Whitby · March 28, 2007 8:57AM

Wait a minute......

You mean to tell me that the Franklins, the ones I bought at 33 bucks from the Mint just over a year ago, are now at 73 for the Scientist and 65 for the Founding Father at a PF67?

Thats rather impressive. Given that the perception I have seen is that the Marine Dollar has a bit more popularity than the Franklin.

Hmmm....Looks like those populations of under 160,000 for the proofs in the Franklins are making a diff after all.

Personally, I have always liked these coins....
