    About this ebook

    The last book I wrote coin collection but this one is more specifically about investment and investors' interest in coins. As I was growing up, I was interested in collecting coins but having precious coins was a farfetched idea. This book is directed to all those people who want to start investing in coins. Gold, silver, and rare coins are valuable and will never lose their charm. This book will guide you regarding different coins and their worth.



    I hope that this book helps you as you start investing in precious and rare coins. These coins are not the easiest to find and collect but they will be worth the value they bring. This book is very special for me as I pass on all the information I have collected over the years to my dear readers. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I loved writing it for you. Sharing my favorite quote with you before you start reading this book.



    “Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.” Carl Sandburg
