Book
Department
Welcome
to the Book Department. These are some of my favorite books on coins,
medals, tokens,
ancients, errors,
paper money, auction
catalogues and odd and curious money.
Unfortunately, most of them are now out of print.
These books
are necessary reading for the library of every serious collector. Consider
them your guide to more fully understand and enjoy your collection.
All
prices are in Canadian Dollars.
