Availability of my Books

Hi All,

I posted the following on a Canadian site last week and thought I would post it here also. A few of the members here have previously bought some of my books.

For anybody who might be interested, "The 1858 Cents of Provincial Canada, Volume II" (the softcover about the 1858 W9/8 Cents) is sold out and now out of print.

The softcover "Canada Cent Die Studies, 1890-H and 1892" has five copies remaining to be sold and then will be out of print.

The two hardcovers, "The 1858 Cents of Provincial Canada, Volume I" (about the 1858 cents) and "Dies & Diadems" (about the whole Victorian cent series), have about 25 copies each remaining to be sold and then will be out of print.

If anyone wants to order any of these remaining books, you can PM me or send me an email. My email address can be found on the website in my signature line below. You no longer can order the books directly through my website since my webhost changed. Contact me and I will work out any book order with you.

I really appreciate those who have purchased my books and sincerely hope you have enjoyed them. After seventeen years of having books and packing materials in my garage, filling out customs forms, and running to the post office, I am winding down on personally selling books.

My last two books, "Past & Nearly Perfect" (about large cent specimens) and "Dominion Decimals" (the history of Canadian coinage struck at The Royal Mint) remain available from the RCNA website, https://rcna.ca/book/index.php. They will also be for sale at the RCNA convention in Calgary this summer, and I will be there to sign them for those who wish.

These books have been a labor of love and personal curiosity in trying to understand my favorite Canadian series and historical time period. I am taking a break on writing books and may, or may not, return to doing it someday. Rest assured, I am staying involved in the hobby and will contribute occasional articles, mostly through the CN Journal.

Thanks again and enjoy your collecting. It is a great hobby.
