Oh no! It looks like I only have room on my shelf for one more edition of the MEGA Red Book (A Guide Book of United States coins)!

My wife threatened to beat me with it if I bought another one.

Nemlas: Your wife might be able to over-look a coin, they tend to be small .... but a Mega Red Book .... she ain't gonna miss that one.

I only have the 1st edition. I will definitely be tempted to buy whatever editions come out with halves and dollar coins.

Can't believe that wooden holder of yours hasn't collapsed under the weight of 5 editions. That's 7500+ pages and 30+ pounds!

LOL! I'm also waiting for the halves, since that's what I focus on. I'm actually hoping Whitman does a separate volume for Commemorative halves.

They ought to, it really deserves to be separate.

I can see one for Liberty, Franklin and Kennedy halves and one for commems (and then probably one for earlier issues - Barbers and the like). There is likely a TON more info per commem coin than for the individual editions of the annual series (plural).

I have one of those but I'm afraid one more would sink my house.

I'm worried about buying another one sinking my marriage.

Kidding... my wife already knows I'm a lost cause and would only be mad at me if I left it out on the counter for a few weeks.

You guys are going about this all wrong.

Wrap your books in a cover that says "Holy Bible".

Your wife will approve.
