Q: I am interested in collecting British coins, but don't know what to look for. Is there an easy-to-follow book on the subject, one which gives historical details but also a price guide?
Mr M
A. There are many books on this subject, but one I find very useful is Coins Of England And The United Kingdom, published by Spink and Son, London WC1B 4ET, available through any bookshop at about £15. It gives advice to beginners, contains much historical detail about coins, and contains a detailed price guide.
