Coin collecting is a fun hobby.

The Big Book of Coin Collecting for Beginners is packed full of information about getting started in coin collecting as a hobby. Coin collecting sounds like a fun hobby, however, it is not a logical way to make money in the short term. There is a lot of care that must be taken to care for your coins; too little moisture, too much moisture, not polishing coins, handling coins by the sides only, using thumb and forefinger only, are just a few things you must pay attention to or risk causing damage to your coins. Timing to buy and sell your coins is important. There are historical implications of collecting coins, not just the monetary value. Coin collecting is a long term hobby. Start when you are young and go slowly by adding to your collection.

A Treasure Hunt in Every Pocket Change

Remember that dusty tin full of old coins you found in the attic? This book turns that box of forgotten treasures into a captivating hobby. It goes beyond just values and tells the fascinating story of money, from ancient times to the modern day. Chapter on Brief History of Coins and Coin Collection was particularly engaging. It talks about famous coin collectors throughout history, like Cleopatra and King Tut! Who knew collecting coins could be so regal? It makes you wonder what stories the coins in your pocket hold. Now, I find myself looking at my change with fresh eyes, wondering about the history it might represent.

Complete Guide for the Newbie Coin Collector

The first thing I learned was the term: numismatics. Who knew? But, that is the beauty of this guide, this 'crash course' as it is so aptly named. As a complete coin collecting novice who has a desire and nothing else to offer, I was given everything I need to know, including the history of this fascinating hobby. Now I feel that I have the knowledge to search for, evaluate (fake coins are definitely a thing), buy, store and protect, and sell my coins. The short chapters make it easy to find what I need at that moment, to listen, get my answer, and move forward. This is a wonderful resource I will refer to again and again.
