I just received this as a Christmas gift. It is an excellent visual guide with very detailed drawings. I know next to nothing about the subject so the layout is nice for a beginner. They are arranged by type and style which makes comparing the item in hand to various examples in the book much quicker and easier. I would recommend it to anyone who already collects or is interested in getting into it. With lots of cool items available on the site now I will expand my collecting beyond coins.
