Buying coins on the internet is something that carries a great deal of risk. You do not get to physically handle and inspect the merchandise allowing for very deceitful marketing practices if you are not careful. Some of the best coin shopping is available on the internet simply becuase there is less overhead to run an online coin shop, or to sell on eBay. There is also a wider range of suppliers that can be reached at the click of a mouse enabling very competitive shopping! Though, some deals are just too good to be true for a very good reason: Because they are!

If you have ever wanted to buy coins on eBay or elsewhere on the internet but were afraid of being ripped off... If you aren't sure if you could spot a fraudulent deal... If you've ever been a victim and want to avoid being one again... Then this may be the perfect book for you!

This book covers the following:
Buying "unsearched" lots of coins,
Miniature gold coins that have little or no gold in them,
Shotgun style coin rolls and how they are sometimes modified to rip people off,
Altered coins,
Graded and ungraded coins,
Identifying counterfeit silver dollars and how to avoid them,
And a few more extra pieces of advice as well!

This revised first edition features a basic introduction to coin collecting, as well as some pictures demonstrating key points covered by the book. Grammar and structuring has been revised to improve your reading experience. Anyone who's downloaded the previous "1st Edition" should have access to this revised copy.

Coin collecting is very enjoyable and it ties us directly to our history. The steel pennies helped us win WWII, the Peace dollar was a celebration of our first great war coming to an end, the Kennedy Half Dollar was a tribute to a beloved president's tragic end. Lincoln was placed on the penny a hundred years after his birth, and even the bi-centennials in 1976 are to be admired depticting revolutionary war drummers and Independence Hall. These are small examples of the heritage we protect and preserve for our future generations by collecting and maintaining coins. It is the author's goal to help protect the integrity of coin collecting by eposing the fraud and deceit common to the marketplace.

Not only are they fun to collect, but they represent a significant investment opportunity and safe haven when compared to stocks and other investments. Coins almost always appreciate in value as they get older and harder to find. Gold and Silver coins as well have outperformed any other investment by a longshot. It is never too late to start collecting coins, and some day you will be glad you did!

Learning all you can about the deceptions that are out there is the first small step you can take in ensuring a positive, risk free coin buying experience.
