Its contents include objectives, an overview of numismatic terms, and discussion of the roles of dealers, students, collectors and investors. It also considers how to look at a coin, where to seek advice, and how coins may be used in the classroom. | The pamphlet includes commentary on its illustrations, with coin descriptions provided in the text and references linking those descriptions to the images.
