WHITMAN RELEASES 3RD EDITION ON MORGAN SILVER DOLLARS

[The following is taken from the publisher's press
release. -Editor]

Whitman Publishing, LLC, has released the third edition
of A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, completely
updated and now in full color. The book, by Q. David.
Bowers, offers pricing, grading instructions, history,
and tips on being a smart collector.

Readers will learn what to look for when they buy, how
to grade their coins, how to cherrypick valuable rare
varieties that appear normal at first glance, and how
to be a smart buyer. A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars,
third edition, includes a thorough market analysis for
each date and mintmark, a detailed look at the minting
process, and a study of Treasury releases and other hoards.
A section on U.S. Mint pattern coins shows various coin
designs that “might have been,” which ultimately led to
Morgan's final motif.

A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars is available
online at WhitmanBooks.com and other web sites, and at
hobby shops and bookstores nationwide.

304 pages
6 x 9 format

Publisher Dennis Tucker adds: "The valuations and
certified population reports are the main data that
were updated. In addition, Dave made a thorough edit
of the book, correcting various typographical and other
errors, updating the text with new research (including
some mintages), etc. There are new illustrations in the
introduction, and the whole book is in color now."
