<p>[QUOTE="coinman0456, post: 1219216, member: 18177"]This is an area of numismatics that is, and should be a primary effort for any individual collector, beginner or seasoned. Building a reference library of numismatic literature by comparison to assembling any coin, medal or token collection, is quite within the financial reach of all. One will be thrust, back in time to become friends with individuals who's names are rarely if ever mentioned in the course of this present day arena. The wealth of knowledge to be gained, is only restricted by your own desire. There are Numismatic Literature Dealers that present regular auctions for the Bibliophile. A dear friend, Dr. Joel Orosz and Len Augsburger recently published " The Secret History Of the First United States Mint". While I of course purchased one of only 25 special bound copies, the work is available in paperback at a very reasonable asking. This is a MUST READ for any numismatic collector. The previous published work by Frank Stewart in 1924 until now was a primary reference about our first Mint, which was reprinted about 1974 I believe. Take a ride into history and pickup a copy of this wonderful book and from time-to - time check out the Numismatic Literature Auctions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
