<p>[QUOTE=&quot;phankins11, post: 2262938, member: 70703&quot;]Coinworld has an article this month entitled &quot;Patriotic Printers, craftsmen who printed early paper money were patriots.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The article highlights a handful of printers during the time of the founding of The U.S. The article doesn&#039;t delve too deep into the paper money aspect as much as it covers what each printer was known for and what role they played in the birth of the nation and which currency they printed.</p><p><br /></p><p>This early currency is a subject I&#039;ve been increasingly interested in.</p><p><br /></p><p>A book the the article references over and over is The Early Paper Money of America, by Eric P. Newman. I&#039;m not ready to start buying any pieces yet, but the subject fascinates me and I want a good book on the subject. I think this book may fit the bill, but here&#039;s my question; a fifth Edith as been released recently,&nbsp; but it&#039;s quite expensive, looks like around $75 - $95, but older editions are available for much less. This seems like a book that shouldn&#039;t really have much change to it. I&#039;m sure someone out here has read this book, and probably some out here own a copy. Can you tell me if the big dollars for the latest edition is worth it, or will I be just as well served in getting a much less expensive earlier edition?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
