This is an excellent book in our KNC Library!
Remember, if you are a numismatist, you thrive on research! Whether it’s opening a Red Book and getting the mintage of a favorite coin or discovering a new reference from the 1800s for a research project, the “Library” is the right place to spend some time…At Each Club Meeting!

My sisters and I have inherited a large amount of coins. I am in the process of sorting them. I am interested in your club, however, I cannot come to a meeting on Tuesday nights as I have a previous weekly engagement.
