各地錢幣愛好者和收藏家注意了。透過備受期待的第四版《錢幣收藏：錢幣學世界簡介》來提升您對錢幣學的熱情，這是關於所有硬幣以及如何在錢幣收藏領域取得成功的綜合資源。

Author Kenneth Bressett, Editor Emeritus of A Guide Book of United States Coins (the Red Book), former president of the American Numismatic Association, and author of more than 20 numismatic books, has updated the definitive reference to finding just how lucky you can be as a coin collector.

作者肯尼斯·布雷塞特（Kenneth Bressett）是《美國錢幣指南》（紅皮書）的名譽編輯，美國錢幣協會前主席，也是20 多本錢幣書籍的作者，他更新了權威參考資料，以了解您到底有多幸運身為錢幣收藏家。

Originally released in 1999 and referred to by the collecting community as the "Golden Book of Coin Collecting," or simply the Yellow Book, because of its easily identifiable color, Coin Collecting is one of Whitman’s best-selling titles.

《錢幣收藏》最初於 1999 年發行，因其易於識別的顏色而被收藏界稱為“錢幣收藏金書”，或簡稱為“黃皮書”，是惠特曼最暢銷的書籍之一。

"Bressett’s Coin Collecting is an evergreen in the Whitman library," said John Feigenbaum, President and CEO of Whitman Brands™. "It serves as an introduction for so many entering or navigating the hobby — rich in facts, insights, and tips on how to succeed in coin collecting. We hope this edition, with a new look, expanded content, and market values for popular coin series, generates even more interest."

Whitman Brands™ 總裁兼執行長 John Feigenbaum 表示：“布雷塞特的錢幣收藏是惠特曼圖書館的常青樹。” 「它為許多進入或探索這一愛好的人提供了介紹——包含豐富的事實、見解和如何成功進行錢幣收藏的技巧。我們希望這一版能夠有新的面貌、擴展的內容和流行錢幣的市場價值系列，會產生更多興趣。

Aimed squarely at newcomers to collecting but full of useful information for all levels, this is a guide that covers all the different aspects of coin collecting — how to get started in the hobby; what makes a coin valuable; where to buy and sell coins; how to care for and store your coins; understanding grading standards; oddities and counterfeits; gallery of actual coin sizes; plus coin-related collectibles and essential supplies — and in doing so brings a fun and potentially lucrative hobby home to readers everywhere.

這是一本指南，專門針對收藏新手，但充滿了適合各個級別的有用信息，涵蓋了錢幣收藏的所有不同方面——如何開始這一愛好；是什麼讓硬幣有價值；在哪裡購買和出售硬幣；如何保養和儲存您的硬幣；了解評分標準；奇特和假貨；實際硬幣尺寸的畫廊；加上與硬幣相關的收藏品和必需品——這樣做為世界各地的讀者帶來了有趣且可能有利可圖的愛好。

"Coin Collecting is both well-designed and easy to follow, full of facts and replete with high-resolution photos for visual learners," said Diana Plattner, Whitman’s Editorial Director. She added, "The book should appeal to both newcomers and experienced numismatists, distilling some very complex topics, and hopefully inspiring readers to continue learning via more specialized works."

惠特曼的編輯總監戴安娜·普拉特納 (Diana Plattner) 表示：“《硬幣收藏》設計精良，易於理解，內容豐富，並為視覺學習者提供了高解析度照片。”她補充說：“這本書應該吸引新手和經驗豐富的錢幣學家，提煉出一些非常複雜的主題，並希望激勵讀者透過更專業的作品繼續學習。”

Discover fresh chapters that delve into modern collecting strategies and embrace the excitement of building your collection with confidence. The all-new fourth edition features a revised chapter titled "Collecting with a Stated Purpose." Focused on the newcomer who is ready to start building a type-coin collection, it provides basic information and up-to-date market values using Greysheet-based pricing for the major types of U.S. circulating coinage from 1793 to date.

探索新的章節，深入探討現代收藏策略，並充滿信心地擁抱建立收藏的興奮感。全新的第四版修訂後的章節名為「有明確目的的收集」。它主要針對準備開始建立鑄幣收藏的新手，使用基於灰表的定價為 1793 年至今的美國流通鑄幣的主要鑄幣類型提供基本資訊和最新市場價值。

Additionally, unlike previous editions, this edition is indexed with the type collector in mind, organized to help the reader who has taken an interest in one particular type across multiple denominations (e.g., Barber coinage, or the many variations on Bust coinage).

此外，與先前的版本不同，此版本的索引考慮到了鑄幣收藏家的需求，旨在幫助對多種面額的某一特定鑄幣感興趣的讀者（例如巴伯鑄幣或半身像鑄幣的多種變體）。

Foreword author Michael Garofalo emphasized, "Coin Collecting will help you begin your coin collecting journey and learn what is important. It truly is a ‘must have’ when trying to find a good coin book that can help you get off on the right foot."

前言作者Michael Garofalo 強調：「《錢幣收藏》將幫助您開始錢幣收集之旅，並了解什麼是重要的。當您試圖找到一本可以幫助您順利起步的優秀錢幣書時，這確實是一本'必備品'。
