YourGeorgiaPeach Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 06/02/2019 11:19 am My latest copy is a 2016 Standard Edition spiral bound Red Book, don't see myself updating it until maybe 2024/25. For anyone interested in the latest coin releases and market price fluctuations you always have the internet, but 8-10 years between books seems like a reasonable span of time to wait for updating. Might hold out past 2026 though in case the Mint does something crazy for the US Semiquincentennial YGP Edited by YourGeorgiaPeach 06/02/2019 11:25 am Report this Post to the Staff

ty88ty2 Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 06/02/2019 1:42 pm I've got the 2019 Red Book currently. I don't see a need to get a new anytime in the near future. Report this Post to the Staff
matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 06/02/2019 2:29 pm The Red Book belongs to another age. Before the Internet print media was the only source for information about coins. This helps explain the lack of a need to update every year. As for myself, I like the feel of a hardbound edition and would not be happy with a spiral bound. But each to his or her own taste. Report this Post to the Staff
CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12841 Posts	Posted 06/02/2019 3:52 pm I picked up the 2019 edition from Hobby Lobby (with coupon) a couple weeks back. I had skipped 2018. I have the inaugural Mega Red as well as several editions going back to 2010. I don't know why I typically buy the annual edition when one every 5 years would do. On the other hand, the Mega is probably worth picking up annually for the special sections. I mentioned in another thread I probably will when they start focusing on half dollar and dollar coins.
