Strike It Rich With Pocket Change – 2nd Edition

Mistakes seldom bring good news, but in this case things are a little different. Coins with errors are greatly valued by collectors around the world and are avidly sought. The premise of "Strike It Rich With Pocket Change" is that any who looks through their change will find coins worth more than face value. And the good news is...you can! This is not the first book on the subject of pocket change valuables but it is a good one that's easy to read and enjoy.

Ken Potter is well known in the numismatic community and one who has contributed greatly with his vast knowledge of error coins. He's received numerous awards for his articles and is a member of virtually every numismatic community around.

The 2nd edition of "Strike It Rich With Pocket Change" covers errors and varieties of U.S. coins that are typically found in pocket change today. It contains a wealth of information regarding clashing, rotated designs, edge errors, striking errors, errors on planchets, errors that are valuable and errors that aren't, and one of the most fascinating chapters of all...myths common to error coins!.

The bottom line...if you enjoy coin collecting and like the idea of finding something valuable in your pocket change then this is a book for you. Easy reading, well illustrated and straight to the point content shows you what to look for, how to identify coins and the differences between what is valuable and what isn't.

Like a lot of other collectors I've pretty much worn out my copy of "Cherrypickers Guide to Rare Die Varieties of United States Coins." Loaded with illustrations, pictures and indepth content this is a guide to keep next to wherever you dump your change at night. Clear and concise, the Cherrypickers Guide is required reading for anyone scouting out pocket change for error and varietal coins.
