This is a must for your numismatic library: What a surprise!

Wow! I just saw this in Coin World and went to their website.
I am ordering! What are your thoughts?
Seems like a bargain at $30


Whitman Book on Patterns.

    I want to get it. Does anyone know how many pages and how many pictures it will have?

    I'll stick with my 1965 Judd, which cost me five bucks, as the number of U.S. pattern coins I'm likely to own in the near future is exactly zero...

    I agree Lordmarcovan, I may not own one, but the numismatic knowledge gained on mint and US coinage history is priceless, not to mention the eye candy.

    No disagreement here. Money is seldom wasted on numismatic books, even if they're outside one's specialty. There's a lot to be said for broadening one's horizons, and definitely a lot to be said for eye candy! image

    (I think I'm just cheap.)
