Product Description
Building on the comprehensive scope of the classic Friedberg text, Q. David Bowers has written a definitive history of paper currency of the United States. Every federal note--from the ultra rare Demand Notes of 1861 to the lunch money in your wallet today--is described in detail. Bowers' engaging narrative captures the romance and history of American paper money, and also explores recent developments in the hobby and market. Combining the hobby-standard Friedberg numbering system with retail prices and hundreds of color and black-and-white photos, this book promises to be a standard reference for years to come.

Just The Ticket, 2008-12-26
The Official Red Book of United States Paper Money is just what the collector needs. Not complicated at all, but very simple to navigate through. Denominations listed in order and not spread all through the book. Can't help but find what you want with current prices and selecting proper grading is easy to.

A Guide Book Of United States Paper Money: Complete Source for History, Grading, and Prices (Official Red Book) , 2008-03-26
It's been many years since I've had this book. All of my expectations were satisfied. This book has been the "Bible" for US Paper money as long as I can remember. If you want to understand grading, pricing, or just want to learn about an important piece of American history, its worth the money.

A book every collector must have, 2007-12-27
This book has been so helpful in my collecting quests. I spent about an hour in Borders trying to find a book that gives values of modern as well as old currency for ranges up to Unc-63. It provides all the necessary information (such as signatures, series, quantity printed) for almost all bills and has a nice informative section as well. It gives price points that help you place a bid on valuable bills. This helps all collectors, experienced or not. I highly recommend this book.
