Cherrypickers’ Guide: 5th Edition, Volume II
Now Available!!!!!!!

Autographed
by Ken Potter
Whitman Publishing is releasing a new,
expanded, and updated volume of the award-winning Cherrypickers’ Guide to
Rare Die Varieties of United States Coins. The fifth edition, volume II,
covers half dimes to silver and modern dollars, plus gold dollars through double
eagles, commemoratives, and bullion. It will be available in November 2011,
online (including at www.Whitman.com), and from booksellers, hobby shops, and
coin dealers nationwide, for $39.95.
Longtime die-variety specialist Ken Potter has joined
the Cherrypickers’ team as editor of the new volume, working with the book’s
original creators, Bill Fivaz and J.T. Stanton.
“Cherrypicking” involves examining coins that look normal
at first glance, but have unusual characteristics (like doubled and tripled
dies, overdates, and repunched mintmarks) that can reveal a common coin to be a
rare and valuable variety. The Cherrypickers’ Guide includes close-up
photographs and descriptions to guide the reader, plus market information and
values in multiple grades, for more than 780 varieties. Appendices include
essays on types of doubling, how to examine your coins, Proof set varieties,
collector clubs, recommended reading, and other beginner and advanced topics.
Accurate pricing was an important goal for editor Ken Potter.
“We coordinated our pricing with input from dealers, collectors, and other
hobby experts and specialists,” said Potter. “For each variety we studied
retail prices, coin-show activity, and real-world auction results, in detail, in
order to report the most accurate values possible.”
The new volume is 32 pages longer than the fourth edition,
with more than 100 new varieties. “Most of the additions are within the
popular modern series,” said Whitman publisher Dennis Tucker. “We have new
Mercury dimes, more than a dozen each of new Roosevelt dimes and Kennedy half
dollars, two dozen new Washington quarters, including State and National Park
varieties, and new modern dollars. The entire bullion section is new, covering
silver, gold, and platinum coins. And we’ve included additional varieties in
the older coinage series, as well.”

Strike
It Rich
With Pocket Change
Error
Coins Bring Big Money
by Brian Allen & Ken Potter
Third Edition

Autographed
by Ken Potter
Have you ever knowingly
spent $100 on a candy bar or $50 on a soft drink? As ludicrous as the concept
sounds, the authors, Ken Potter and Dr. Brian Allen suggest that there is no
doubt you have unintentionally done this numerous times without even knowing it,
contending that there are just as many valuable coins in circulation today as
there were 50 years ago. As more collectors and general coin enthusiasts are
drawn to the treasure-hunt appeal of error and variety coins, interest in
everyday coins is increasing as people take a closer look at the change in their
pocket.
The U.S. Mint's popular state, territorial and America The
Beautiful quarter programs and the introduction of the Westward Journey nickels
(in 2004-5) and a new dollar coin series has produced new discoveries and has
generated greater attention and interest from the public.
Thus the need for an updated version of this book, which
helps make sense of it all and gives greater meaning to phrases including
"Doubled Die," "Repunched Mintmark," "Double
Edge-Lettering," "Misaligned Clashed Die" and "Die
Dents."
In this new edition of Strike It Rich with Pocket Change
readers learn about the different types of errors and varieties and how to spot
them in varying types of coins, using the unique and useful combination of
nearly 1000 photos and illustrations comparing properly minted coins with their
error counterparts. In addition, the authors' insights help dispel common myths
about error and variety coins.
Among the coins included in the listings are Lincoln Memorial
cents, Jefferson nickels, Roosevelt dimes, Washington quarters, John F. Kennedy
half dollars, state quarters and all the dollar coins issued since the
Eisenhower dollar through the current Presidential dollars. While the listings
focus on the more valuable rare coins, the principles discussed throughout this
book can be applied when researching and inspecting any coin for possible
errors.
The book can be found in book stores such as Barnes &
Noble, Borders, Amazon.com, and many numismatic book and supply dealers. An
autographed copy may be ordered direct from Ken Potter by sending $19.99 plus
$3.99 shipping to P.O. Box 760232, Lathrup Village, MI 48076

Walter Breen's
Complete Encyclopedia
of U.S. and Colonial Coins

Walter Breen's Complete Encyclopedia of U.S. and Colonial Coins (754 pgs.!!) Everybody should own this massive textbook! We now have a used copy of this high-demand hard to find book! It is essentially near-mint. However, as many of these books from one of the later printing were, it has a section of the book that is not bound (glued) into the binding as well as it should have been. However, other than just three or four pages, the entire section (and all others) are very tight. While not a flawless, near-mint copy, it is far better than some ragged copies that I've seen that are falling all apart and held together with rubber bands and still being offered in the $150 range! Very Nice Used Copy (Near Mint) $225.00

Treasure Hunting in the Flying Eagle and Indian Head Cent Series (pocket size book) by Kevin Flynn $24.95


Here is a look at a couple of pages from the book
"When you
stop to think about it -- finding just one coin that is listed in this book
-- will pay for the book many times over!"
The Quick Reference to
the Top Lincoln Cent Die Varieties by Wagnon, Peterson, Flynn. This neat spiral bound 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" pocket book
contains 144 pages crammed full of the pertinent information needed to identify and price
what what the authors feel are the top Lincoln cent varieties (there are a few more than
100 listed in this book).
By eliminating most of the typical introductory type chapters
that are
often included in larger format books (such as those that go into great detail diagnosing how
varieties are created, how to tell die doubling apart from lesser forms of
doubling, etc.), this
book cuts past the repetitive clutter and delves right into the variety listings.
Additionally, by reducing text size and the wise cropping images, the
authors were able to present images at a size that are large and easy to view -- showing
every single variety to best advantage. In
fact, most of the images in this book are far superior to the tiny images found
in the Cherrypickers' Guide To Rare Die Varieties!
In effect, it is an excellent companion to the CPG where a collector wants to
get a better look at what many of those varieties really look like -- plus it
includes some better varieties missed in the CPG! When you stop to think
about it -- finding just one coin that is listed in this book -- will pay for
the book many times over!
Each variety includes a brief description of what it is and what to
look for, Wexler listing numbers (for the most part), cross reference listing numbers to
Cherrypickers' Guide and CONECA, a rarity guide, an ANACS population report, values and an
additional comments section.
This book was designed for easy carrying to conventions and shops where
other larger format books become cumbersome and heavy to lug around. It's the type
of book you can throw into your suite coat pocket (or the back pocket of you jeans) and
forget it's there until you need it! Covering varieties spanning from 1909
through 1997, the regular retail price on this book is $24.95. It is now
out-of-print and getting hard to find.
We have purchased one of the author's entire remaining supply and will
offer the book at a discount until the supply grows low (at which point we will raise it
to $24.95 again). $19.95
