General Info:

Author: Eli Levine

Edition: 1981

Language: English

Bound: Hard Cover

Pages: 228

Illustrated: A few

Book Size: 10 1/4" H x 7 1/4" W

ISBN: 0915262525

ISBN: 9780915262526 

Comments:

This is two books combined into one.

Book one is all about a Rational Investment Strategy. It covers subjects like: Compounded Interest, Inflation, Currencies, Devaluation, Taxation, Gold, Invest Alternatives and Investment Strategy.

Book two covers Investors & Numismatics. It has chapters on: Silver, Gold, Bullion Coins, Semi-Bullion Coins, Scarce and rare Coins.

Although this book was written back in 1981 the basics for good sound investing are the same.

The books we are offering are all NEW but because of the gold foil cover they do show some friction marks from rubbing against each other. Besides, it's the information whiten the covers that's most important not how the cover looks.

The book has been out of print for quite a few years and except for a few worn-out used copies being offered you just don't see ones in new condition.

Edition: 1988

ISBN: 0943161118

Comments:

The title of this long out of print book is so generic it can be somewhat misleading as to what’s in-store for the reader. I think a better title like, “A Trip Down Numismatic Memory Lane,” would have said so much more.

The book covers the often overlooked side of the history of collecting coins in America, and what the forces were which caused its popularity through the years. Information like this you’ll never see in the “Red” of “Blue” books for coin collectors.

You'll learn the names of the greats in the hobby and see some of the ads they ran back in the early days of coin collecting. For instance:

F.C.C. Boyd – Year: 1930 – 1909 S VDB Lincoln Cents – Uncirculated 25c - If 25c was to low for a 09 SVDB then he was too high for the 1909 S without the VDB because that was also 25c.

J. W. Scott’s – Silver Coin Catalog of 1906 – You could have purchased any date from 1929 to 1934 Bust Half dimes in Uncirculated at just 50c each.

R. Green – an old Chicago coin dealer was offering in one of his ads a roll of Uncirculated 1926 D Standing Liberty quarters for $23.00.

I started collecting coins back in 1951 when I was 12 years old. I found the book to be “absolutely fascinating.” If a time machine is ever invented in my lifetime you’ll find me at a coin store!
