Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1602868, member: 112"]Then you're going to have a problem because probably 99% of the books you'll want or need are not going to be found in a brick and mortar book store. You are going to have to resign yourself to ordering books on-line if you want to get the books at all. Sorry, but that's just a fact of life. There are a couple of other things you need to understand. As a general rule, numismatic books worth having are not cheap ! So be prepared for sticker shock. And, you are not always going to be able to find the book you want right when you want it. Sometimes it takes a while. There have been books I wanted that it took me years to find. But if you keep looking, and are patient, you can find them. Now, as for some recommendations; you mentioned :British - Coins Of England & The United Kingdom by Spink. Spanish colonial - The Milled Columnarios of Central & South America 1732-1772 by Frank Gilboy; and - Cobs, Pieces of Eight and Treasure Coins by Sewall Menzel. Early American ( I assume you mean American colonial) - Colonial And Early American Coins by Q. David Bowers. Now to help you find those books, use the links you find here - <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t13899/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t13899/">http://www.cointalk.com/t13899/</a> And as I said, you are going to have to do this on-line or not do it all.[/QUOTE]
