The Sigma Metalytics Original.
Coin Booklet
The Coin Booklet was developed by Sigma Metalytics to help new users and new investors get all the info they need for the most popular and common coins in one place. They consulted with the largest online retailers to determine which coin and bar types were most popular among their customers, then researched the correct information for each coin and bar, and collected all of that info in this booklet.
