The following is an article excerpt from Coinweek You can't blame Whitman for trying to shake things up with its venerable Red Book franchise. Despite being the company's best-selling book and a rite of passage for coin collectors for more than 70 years, it's becoming increasingly apparent that the Guide Book is more of a first reference in the field and less and less a living, breathing document of the coin market in the digital age.
Understanding this, Whitman has tried to broaden the scope of the Red Book over the years, starting with a "Professional Edition"-an expanded version with additional pricing columns for several series and rudimentary auction data for most entries.
