    [For central Kentuckians: Morris Book Shop carries Levels A and B.]

    Author's note: Level A and B were originally published as Coin Conundrums and Coin-Clue Puzzles by other companies. I'm thrilled to have them in their new form and eager for many students to enjoy the fun of learning from them.
