Post your latest Book Buy!

A few years ago I started a thread about what was the last book you bought about coins.....it went over 5 pages and I though it would be kindof fun to see what books were on your list now!

I guess I post the last few I've gotten......

Walter Breens Encyclopedia of US and Colonial Proof Coins---Signed
The Accugrade system--Signed
Silver and Gold commemoratives---Signed
Vol. 2 of the Cherrypicker's Guide---Signed by both guys

my last read is from the ana numismatic course....the modern minting process. now finishing my last course for my diploma..which is U.S. minting errors and varieties. prior to this course, it was david bowrers' experts guide to collecting and investing in rare coins. i highly recommend both the entire ana course and pretty much any book by david bowers...keep up the learning everyone. it certainly adds much enjoyment to your hobby!...steve

I pre-paid for the next Standard Catalog of World Coins 1701-1800. It's due out in December.

 

I just purchased the same one Arizona Jack got. Hey, does anyone know where to find coin prices from the late 90's to early 2000's on the net ??

 

The Buffalo Book by Lang 2nd ed.

 

I recently got two different years of B. Max Mehl's Star rare coin books, from the 1930's.

Also, one of the special edition Red Book -- with the Stack's insert.

And several other special editions.

 

Bruce,
I'm waiting to find that book signed! I've seen it around and I'm thinking about just ordering it through the ANR that way David will sign it when it is sent.

Frank! How is the book coming?

Guess you could say there are two. One easy to find and one not so easy to locate. #1. Strike it Rich with Pocket Change, Allen & Potter. Got it at Borders. #2. Paper money of the United States, Friedberg, 1st edition. Picked this one up at a used bookstore.

Well I did not know that David did an outstanding job on this book I hope you get a copy signed,

 

I do not own any coin books, but the most recent book that holds coins that I bought was a buffalo nickel book.

Then today is the day to start. The old saying is: Buy the book before you buy OR sell the coin.
That is a really true statement.

1. Sylloge of Coins of the British Isles: Polish Museums
2. The Anglo-Gallic Coins by Elias
3. Las Monedas Espanolas by Cayon and Castan
4. Roman Coins and their Values by David Sear (a VERY out of date edition - it was cheap!)

I'm looking forward to buying Spinks' Coins of England and one or two volumes of the RIC.

 

Waiting on the arrival of a book on the 4 main Chinese banknote producers to arrive :smile and we have a bloody postal strike at the moment

 

Steve, I just took a few moments to take a look at your banknote collection and I've got to say "WOW, very impressive..."

Take Care
