Review of "Strike it Rich with Pocket Change"
Strike It Rich With Pocket Change by Ken Potter and Brian Allen is an amazing book that can help collectors identify their coins. After reading their book, you will learn how to determine coin's values with their date, mint mark type, and many other factors. You will also learn how to identify coin errors, which sometimes are worth more than even the rarest of coins. The information in this book is a must-know for any collector, and can help you "Strike it Rich" with coins that which many can be found in your pocket change. However, there are a few problems with the book. The book isn't in full color which is an annoyance, and the text is not as detailed as I would have preferred it to have been. Overall though it is a decent book, but I would not recommend purchasing it. I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars.

I frequently find coins in change that are worth more than face value. Always makes for a better day..... I don't know if you read other people's blogs, but a lot of these were just done a month or so ago, I try not to write a blog about something that someone recently covered. Like. a couple in the past month or so, man,,,,,
