    It is my understanding that they are currently out of print and only available on the secondary market, yet the demand continues, so copies go for a pretty strong price, although I could be wrong. Try Charlie Davis or one of the other numismatic book dealers:

    Numislit@aol.com

    or try one of these book finders:

    given the prices being paid for similar out-of-print numismatic reference material, I wouldn't be surprised to see a price near $200 from a knowledgeable seller.

    My wife just bought me one for last Christmas and paid $25.00

    Nice book, I wish they would update it though.

    I sold two of them new in shrink wrap at ANA for $200 each. One went to a book dealer so expect to pay more for that one. I've seen them go over $300 on eBay. Tom's wife got a super buy at $25!
