Volume 002 has a bit of a new visual approach. I refined the margins, typefaces, and base grid to better reflect my intended aesthetic. The revised page structure, inspired by mid-1960s instructional manuals, features adjusted margins that allow more content per page, making the text cleaner, more cohesive, and easier to read.

While the presentation has evolved, the core content remains a comprehensive beginner’s guide to coin collecting. It focuses on identifying essential key dates, explores the history of the United States Mint, and details the distinctive designs of each denomination—ensuring readers have all the information they need to start building their collections.

The information has been carefully selected and organized, and PCGS provided the coin images.
