Red Book coin values are found in the most widely used price guide available today. Originally published in 1946 by Whitman Books, A Guide Book of United States Coins: The Official Red Book of U.S. Coins, a.k.a., the Red Book, is the yearly guide that most collectors turn to first for essential information about their coins, including retail pricing. The first Red Book was written by Richard S. Yeoman and current editions are still edited by Kenneth Bressett, a colleague of Yeoman’s who has been working on every edition since 1959.

Current Red Books come with full-color photographs and detailed technical information, which help collectors discern and understand the values of their coins. The Red Book is the primary reference guide for coin collectors. Updated yearly, Red Book coin values also explain the history of certain coins as well as select records for coins sold at auction.

The Red Book is an invaluable tool for coin collectors and is still the most significant U.S. coin pricing guide in print today.

The 9th Edition Mega Red Deluxe Edition Redbook released in August 2023 is the most recent edition.  There will not be an edition released in 2024.  The 10th Edition is currently planned for mid-2025.
