Coin Classes

You are on the best educational site out there. Welcome aboard.

Check out the left hand column as it is loaded with great information.

Ask questions here and you will learn.


What are you interested in collecting or learning about.

Most series of coins have clubs and associations built around them.

For instance if you like early American copper coins, check out the EAC (though my link isn't working for me at the moment?).

If you like Barber coins, check out the Barber Coin Collectors' Society.

If you like Ike dollars, check out the Ike Group.

My suggestion is to buy the Red Book by Whitman. Sit down and look through that book. Then stick around here and ask, ask, ask. And as already noted, check out all the STUFF at the left.

I have been collecting coins for over 30 years and I have learned more in the last few months since I found CCF than I ever did on my own! I totally agree about getting a Red Book, it is invaluable as a resource (I got the Deluxe edition from my awesome family as a Father's Day gift). The people on here are super knowledgeable and super friendly! The main thing is to utilize all of the resources available here (there are a lot). CCF is like a graduate course in coin collecting!

And just think of all the money you'll save by sticking around here. Then you could buy more coins with the savings.
