I bought this book since I had decided to begin collecting coins and I thought it would be good to have some insight into the values and trends associated with coins. Thanks to Mr. Ganz I have his knowledge now. I highly recommend this tome to anyone that wants to make money as a numismatic or at least doesn't want to lose money. The comparisons between stocks and societal trends are very well thought out and explained. The charts are clear and easily show the intended lesson. A very good work by a very knowledgable man.
It took a while to get it but I like the book has prices on coins and that’s what I was looking for
Verified purchase: Yes
As a new coin collector I want to collect everything. But realize that would require a vast amount of money. This book will be useful to me in order to gain some knowledge of coins and their history. And when I may come across one I might have a better idea as to what I would be willing to pay for a bit of history.
The author is more interested in dropping names and talking about who he has met in the coin world rather than telling you about how to collect coins profitably. Very disappointed with this Author, David L. Ganz. He is also obsessed with numbers and bores the reader with too many unnecessary numbers.
