It truly was the Renaissance of American Coins

Friends,

Happy to report I just picked up a copy of Roger Burdette's excllent Renaissance of American Coinage, 1905-1908 (red)edition. This book normally retails for about 50.00 but I was able to pick up a copy on Half.Com for less than half that price. I thought the book might be a little thrashed but it is in great condition and I can't wait to pore over every word. I already have Roger's excellent Peace Dollar book and the 1916-1921 (blue) edition so I know I am in for an enjoyable journey into a bygone era..

Those of you who are not familiar with the 3 book Renaissance series should look for a copy to peruse soonest. Mr. Burdette is a great writer, historian, and numismatist. I still have to get the 1909-1915 (white) edition.

Happy Collecting Everyone.
