The inside of a coin collection book will be different for every collector.
Coin collections are diverse in nature since there are so many types of them to collect.
Some people favor for a certain year that means something special to them.
Other people simply like the designs of some and have their collection full of various pretty ones.
Collections can range from a child collecting pennies to a couple collecting all the state quarters they can find.
Most serious collectors are more interested in rare coins compilation.
A rare one is usually a coin that had a very low mintage.
Mintage is how many of them were created altogether, and a low mintage means not very many were made.
The less initial ones that were made the less likely it is to be able to find one after many years have passed.
It's even harder to find one in pristine condition.
A prime example of a rare coin is one that was only minted in 1922, the high relief Peace dollar coin.
These can be found at a low value but the history of them proves the rarity.
The Peace dollar was made to symbolize the change in the country after World War 1.
Initially when they started to be minted in 1922 they had a high relief, which is the design protrusion on the coin.
The high relief ones made it very hard to stack them so that same year the high relief version was discontinued.
Because of their short lifespan, the amount of that were made is rather low.
These can be found in good condition for as low at twenty dollars, which makes them a good and inexpensive choice for all kinds of collectors.
At the very least it is a good conversation piece because of the story behind how it's one of the few coins only minted in 1922, something not many people can say they have.
