YeOldeCollector Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I would personally say that Spink 2009 is a book that the collector needs, it provides quick reference for IDing coins and a rough guide to valuing them. Click here for more info. Depending on your interests and in what detail you wish to study there is a plethora of books to be had. Are you looking for a book to give detailed aids to identification, general information or just a standard reference to a specific series. Please let me know what you're interested in and at what level as I hope to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ætheling Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 J. J. North English Hammered Coinage Vol. 1 & 2 Not cheap by any means, but it has a lot of information. One thing to bear in mind though some sections (like Henry VI and Edward III) are like wading through mud. It expects some prior knowledge on the reader's part.
