Throw Back Thursday - Post Yours

It’s nothing like the newer red books. Doesn’t list mintage numbers nor errors

Is it the reprint?
Or an original?

 

I found it a few years ago at library sale

 

great pick up.

 

Yeah mine looks like that. Not really red like the new books. Does yours include the 50 D. Nickel. I think that’s a fun book to have. Early books are boring. I have a 47. Same size but pictures are way larger

 

I see that. Only 150.00 fine. They start listing unc. 1802 over 1 50 fine. 125.00 unc.

 

. Like the other member stated that the 1955DD was printed in 58. Just wondering. When will the 82d copper hit the red book. I don’t have a newer one

 

That book must be amazing

 

What does gilt mean. I guessing it well kept.

 

Not US but I picked this up years ago to check old prices from the era I inherited some Canadian coins. The "king" of Canadian dollars was still pricey back then and has barely kept up with inflation. $300 = $2500 today.

 

Yup. I picked it up in an antique book store 4 years ago for $3.00

 

I just threw away 2 boxes of these catalogs. My dad collected every year in the 50s and 60s. I kept the really valuable stuff like Hard Times Tokens by Rulau and both copies by Low. Also found a few "Selections from the Numismatist" books. I kept a few catalogs of world coins from the 60's since most all of of his coins pre-date 1968.
