A Contest...with A Cool Prize!

I see that there are enough people missing the point on this book that I should chime in.

This book is NOT about the valuable stuff. There are plenty of books on that. This book will be about the common stuff and what to avoid when you're searching through change. Like I said before, there will be some images of the valuable stuff, but the general majority of the book centers attention on the stuff that is COMMON in change so you will know what it is, what it looks like, how it was made, and why it has no value.

Because there seems to have been some breakdown in communication over the topic of the book, I will give everyone who wants to another crack at the title. Post again below this entry (do NOT edit your original post).

'Pocket Change: A closer look at common change in your pockets'

U.S. Mint anomalies, worth collecting or not?

"Common Cents"


The introduction could start off something like this-

Think you found that one in a million error or variety, don't quit your job yet! This book will focus on some common and a few not so common Mint varieties and errors that might buy you a cup of coffee.

How about "What you see is what you get"

Charles,

If you are looking for common pieces for photo's I have just a ton of them. Everything from floating roofs, clouds on the reverse, cracked skulls, skirted "R", and many more.

What's this and what's it worth?
a guide to some valuable and not so valuable pocket change.

I just posted a 1982 DDR that I found recently. I haven't been able to find any reference to it. If you would like to use it I will send it to you for photographing.
