I received this book from the ANA a while back for the Early American Copper Project where young numismatists can do numismatic related activities to earn Large Cents, Half Cents, Books and other things related to Early American Coppers. This book by William C. Noyes talks about Coronet Cents and diagnostics for major and minor die varieties this book  also contains high-quality pictures, a must read for a Early American Copper collector. One problem is that this book is pretty expensive, so I am glad I got it for free. But I can't  think of any reason why the ANA library does not have it.  And if you haven't already, go and read my Large cent die varieties series on my blog!

What some people realize is that selling a coin is all in capturing its full beauty in a picture. So if you are planning on selling a coin in the near future, this is a book for you. The Author Mark Goodman give helpful hints on how to perfect numismatic photography to improve your chances of sells dramatically. I have used some of these tips myself and I have seen the results in the pictures I take. So pick this book up and read it today to step up your game in the numismatic market!

In the fourth edition of such a great book about such a great coin series, the author J.H. Cline talks about the Standing Liberty Quarter series, the designer Hermon Macneil's life, how the quarter came onto the scene of American coinage, who the coin was modeled after, some well known errors, die varieties, values, how to grade the coins, key dates, populations for each date and grade with a percentage thought to remain based upon the original mintage and much more! This book is a must read for anyone who is a collector of the Standing Liberty Quarter Series, regardless of dedication.

Mike Byers nails it from the onset, literally! One error coin has been made from a nail and another from a wrench and there are many more examples of wacky mint errors in this book. Mike Byers is a well known collector and dealer of error coins. If you aspire to get some of the rarest of error coins, or if you just want to be entertained then this book is definitely for you as it provides many examples of the mint process gone wrong. Two thumbs up for the best book for examples on mint errors!

In the book:"Official Guide to Coin Grading and Counterfeit Detection" the author John W. Dannreuther give some helpful hints on how to grade coins accurately and how not all coins, dates or both can be graded using the same standards. The author also gives diagnostics for key dates so that you will not be fooled when the time comes for you to add to your collection. The overall work is great, especially since the book is a PCGS publication giving you the most accurate grading standards and ways to find out if a coin is real or a fraud.
