Can anyone recommend any good coin books? I'm not talking about the Redbook or anything like that. I'm looking more for books about the history/process of coining...preferably US, but world coins are OK too.
Thanks

The book is out of print (originally published in 1930), but you should be able to find a copy of the 1988 reprint relatively easily. I bought mine in new condition at a local used bookseller for $15, and feel it was well worth the money.
