I'm looking for some recommendations on where to buy Numismatic literature. Anyone want to give out some sites or Dealers that they buy from?

Literally use search function. 👍🏼

Wizardsupply on the bay might be a good start. I've had good luck with them, again what poster said above
Does this make anyone miss Mr. Burns?...the best book dealer I ever dealt with and partied with!
Yes, we all remember and miss John Burns. Bought rare books from him at nearly every show. I used to help him set up in Baltimore because of the heavy nature of his inventory, and the distance from the loading area to his tables.
There are other important numismatic book sellers, such as Charles Davis and Kolbe-Fanning:

I joined the Numismatic Bibliomania Society (NBS) this year, finally. If you like coin books, then you should look into this organization:

He sure liked his sushi, didn't he?
We had an epic sushi night one year in Orlando. Ordered the large boat and sank it! John stayed off my side but he out drank me.
A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.
A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
I have to LOL at this. That would be a night together deal killer for me! I'm a Pisces and I'm not a canibol!
@Manorcourtman .... There is a book resource and links pinned to the top of this page. Check it out.. Cheers, RickO
I’ve found brooklyngallery.com often has great pricing on hundreds of coin books in addition to supplies.

My collecting “Pride & Joy” is my PCGS Registry Dansco 7070 Set:

I get mine on Kindle so I always have it with me.
I'm not so tech savvy. I prefer things in print. Call me old-fashioned, but I get two newspapers physically delivered to me each morning.
When my grandkids talk to me about apps, I think they're talking about appetizers, lol.

I didn't party with him, but I searched him out and spent time with him at every show.
He was very knowledgeable.
And, yes, I miss him
