Collectors are familiar with the
gold and silver coins bearing a 'CC' mintmark, and now author Rusty Goe
tells the life story of James Crawford, who supervised their production
from 1874-85. The text is spiced with stories of investigations
of alleged embezzlement and misconduct and offers insight on the
political climate during the last quarter of the 19th century.
Extensive information on Carson City coinage is provided, including
details about the celebrated 'CC' silver dollars sold by the U.S.
government during the 1970s. 658 pages.
In the 8th edition, Q. David Bowers has
updated this standard reference on patterns (strikings of possible
future designs and metallic compositions) for U.S. coins from 1792
through 2000. Information for each pattern includes its Judd number,
description, composition, rarity and values. 330 pages with over 1000
photographs.
This outstanding book
has been written by a leading authority on
one of the most popular series among coin collectors. The highly
educational and informative text, combined with detailed photos, make a
wonderful reference. 8.5 " x 11" page size, over 200 pages.
