Hey guys, I got my books that I won in a auction. History of US Coinage, The Garret Collection, Bowers, Great book, one of the best I have seen. I won 4 auction catalogs of the Armand Champa library, Wow what a collection, great reference books for learning about all the numismatic books that were published. regards Tony
cool i love to get books too im looking for krause world coins 1800s just now,very rarely see it come up for sale second hand.dont mind one a couple years out of date either.guess i will have to buy a new copy. also think i will get the krause book on gold coins
I was happy to find a copy of the Bowers Garrett book used in excellent condition at a bookstore. I consider it an important reference. We have had some discussions here about the books a collector needs. I place Bowers Garrett right behind the Breen Encyclopedia for anyone with a general interest in U.S. coinage.
Books Hey Mike, if you ever get a chance to check out the Armand Champa Auction catalogs I think you'll like them, many, many books. Have you ever dealt with Fred Lake from Fla. He has a pretty good book auction every few months. Tony
