| Hi  that was my biggest headache also, but with the help of other collectors, got my first redbook from a coin dealer, but you have to ask them, looking for coin books in the Philippines is like looking for extremely rare coins, it's kept hidden until somebody asks. I asked around and abroad, and highly recommended by serious collectors is the 2006 Krause world coin catalog- all world coins from 1901 to 2000, now out-of-stock with only used books available at US$ 35 slightly used!, had to request friends visiting USA to source out and get it The funny thing is that the USA collectors I asked, prefer this year edition over the 2009 edition!  |

| don't buy new edition and expensive one. buy the used one. it will be very much cheaper. after all. you use it as a reference. mintage and pricing were mostly wrong and outdated. for u.s. coins. try to subscribe dealers newsletter. since it is intended for dealer to dealer buying and selling. deduct 10% from bid. and add 10% from ask. that is your buying and selling quote. example. a gold at $1,000.00 bid and $1,100.00 ask from that newsletter. so if you want to buy from a coin store. your price is $1,200.00 more or less. but if you want to sell it. it will be around $900.00. so you buy today and sell it tomorrow. you are losing some $300.00 or 25%. |
