Illustrated by
True Kelley.
A boy talks about his father's coin collection and what he and Dad have learned in pursuit of this hobby. Friendly text discusses money's history, the U.S. mint, what coins are made of, the value of collected coins, some U.S. history, and games to play with spare change. The lively pages combine text, cartoonlike illustrations, and diagrams.
