Paper Money Of The United States

Now with every illustration in color. This landmark work is the standard reference on American currency since 1953, acknowledged as the most comprehensive and universally recognized guide on the subject, illustrating and valuating all types of United States paper money. From the first year of Federal paper money, 1861, to date, both sides of all currency, from 3 cents to $100,000 are illustrated and accompanied by text listing, describing and pricing, in up to seven conditions, every variety of paper money ever issued. The result is a complete pictorial, descriptive and numismatic history of United States currency. Also with sections on Colonial and Continental currency and the Confederate States of America, and chapters on error notes, encased postage stamps and postage envelopes. For those who think of America's currency as a constant study in green and black, the rainbow-like diversity shown by the more than 800 color illustrations is a revelation in itself. New information has been added and valuations updated, making it possible to establish the value of any note. Paper Money of the United States has been an invaluable asset to currency collectors and numismatists. It also possesses an appeal and value to lovers of Americana, of the fine art of engraving, and students of American history, finance and economics. Banks will find this book especially useful in that it makes possible the immediate identification and valuation of all obsolete but still legal tender currency. It is a book which belongs in every library, public and private.

I'm fairly new to currency collecting, so I needed some solid reference books to increase my knowledge base. This book is a wonderful addition to my currency library. Using the Friedberg catalog numbering system, you can rapidly look for the details on that particular piece of currency. There are many, many beautiful full-color photos for each major type. However, you really need to know the Friedberg number in advance due to the many varieties within each type of currency.The catalog values placed for each note are, to me, just a reference to the scarcity of the note and not the current market value. I've also read that there are some errors in the book regarding values, etc. However, in order to gauge real-world values, eBay and other resources give you much better price discovery.That being said, I would not hesitate to recommend the purchase of this hefty, gorgeous book. I've spent many hours just paging through and discovering U.S. currency that I've never seen before. It's well-worth the price just to explore the history of U.S. currency.

This book is a must-have for anybody who collects or is interested in U.S. currency. It is well laid out and concise.

This is the US Paper Money value bible. Friedberg is the go-to source for any and all valuations. If you plan on collecting paper money, or you already have or have inherited a paper money collection, this is an absolute MUST for your library.The book is Easy to use and easy to reference. The full color photos are excellent as well and aid you in identifying what you actually have.

Along with the many other books that are out on currency, I did enjoy this book from the start as the listings are much more consistent, the values are true to form and because it contains both large and small notes, you do not have to do double spending on a reference book for your inventory!!I will continue to use and monitor this book...

This is the real thing and an excellent reference book for beginners and pros alike. It is easy to use and the pictures are clear and illustrative.

This book covers subjects that I previously have not seen in one volume, including colonial and continental currency, Confederate currency (not the individual state's notes, nor varieties), error notes, and postage envelopes. This book also covers large size notes, small size notes (however, without the serial number ranges covered by the small currency book), fractional currency, and encased postage stamps. This books lightens my load when going to shows.

I was advised by a friend to buy this book. When I received it and went through it I was very impressed with it. The book is packed with information and I would recommend it to anyone.

It's a very extensive and in-depth look at American currency. Rare or common. Worthless or rare and what it's worth.
