    Directly related to coins

    -The Coin Makers-The Development of Coinage from Earliest Times-Thomas W. Becker

    Printmakers
    -Currier and Ives Printmakers to the American People by Harry T. Peters -Special Ed. 1942 (Hoping to find some vignettes that are on paper money, but so far I see none. Sill interesting though.)
