Ideal for someone who wants to learn about coins and currency
I wanted a book for my 9 year old who has recently started collecting coins. Many of the books available are more about the value of coins but this one is nice as it is more aimed at learning about the coins themselves. Highly recommended for new collectors or anyone interested in learning about the history of coins and currency.

Brilliant book
This book is very informative, loads of great pictures to identify my coins that I've found. Its a large hardback book so will last too, I go metal detecting so its ideal for me and anyone who collects coins this book is a must buy..

Nice quality/Hardback book
Not what I was inspecting. I was looking more for a picture reference book with some detail to each coin with a photo. I have kept the book & maybe when I'm more experienced I will appreciate it.

Not much information and rather random.
There are two or more pages per country, but the choice of coins is random, with no sizes or dates or much specific information, so it’s really for someone with a casual interest who wants a very light narrative of coinage in a given region. If you see a coin on a page and want to know its origins or size, or year or even the reign of the monarch, it is almost never given, and the coins simply illustrate a point in the text. Also, the choice of coins is very random, so this is only good for seeing a few examples of, for example, coins in ancient India (which you could easily get by googling the topic), but not good for much else.
