The book will be available at all major book stores along with specialty stores like coin shops. Other than my publisher being a complete idiot, things are moving well. The whole reason that I embarked upon this project was to help the new collector. Learning the subtle differences in cleanings takes studying many coins over and over again. While no book can teach it all, it is my sincere hope that at least it will give a basic understanding. A baseline if you will. Too often, dealers ignore the new collector. The authors of the coin books seem to follow this same logic. It is as if they were born with this knowledge and expect others to be the same. Since we know this to be different, I am gearing this book towards the average collector who wants to understand how cleanings look and why they effect the value of the coin so much.
