You can mitigate your chances of losing access to the particular version of the book by choosing a book that will likely continue being published, like the bible.

The Bible is probably one of the worst possible choices, actually. There are literally hundreds of different versions, with each version having dozens of editions, and even the same edition of the same version being different due to having multiple publishers and/or printers. Even something as simply as line spacing being slightly different or page size being slightly different and your page/line/word schematic is rendered completely useless and your coins completely inaccessible.

Any translated book has this problem. If one wants to have a good chance for this, he should pick a widely published writing that was originally written in English.
Of course, if you have 100 books in your (non-EN) mother tongue and one in English, that may pretty much stand out...
