Anyone have material from the 1700's and/or 1800's for sale?

Any suggestions for reference material in english would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance

For all numismatic stuff Vietnamese, this guy's site is a must see! -- http://art-hanoi.com/collection/

He's a friendly guy (who used to have a lot of great ebay auctions) and would likely be able to answer any questions you may have. Kick around his site for a while as he has a lot of good references there. For cash coins this book is a great one: http://art-hanoi.com/toda/

Thanks! He had a really neat early Vietnamese silver piece that I made him an offer on but didn't get it


Haven't seen another one like it since.

Yep.. the FIC stuff is all over the place.. but the earlier native coins are always tough to find. (at least if you don't want counterfeits!!)

Hey Spoon, I had a communications with Howard since last night. Seems like we're both going to be in Vietnam near enough to maybe meet up in Saigon.

Should be a hoot!
