two fantastic books on buffs and the history of the us mint and coinage

[michael]

both by david lange!!

 

the buffalo book is a second edition update i just finished reading and it was super and i would say is a stand alone book on buffalo nickels! i think of you are even an advanced collector of buffs that this book will pay for itself many times over if you ever deside to go out and purchase some buffalo nicks for your collection!

 

the history of the us mint and coinage book i read last week that was i think just released this summer and it certainly puts in perspective just as the title suggests the hisotry of the usa and how it DIRECTLY affected our nations coins from washington and jefferson right to the modern era

 

if you get a chance to buy both books do it!! they are definately worth the price and i think the buff book was around 35 dollars and the history of the us mint and coinage was around 17 not a bad deal at all and i give the buff book a 5 out of 5 stars and the history of the us mint and coinage book a 4.75 out of 5 stars

 

both extremely well written in an easy read much information and easy to understand matter of factly way

 

done by our own david lange who works at ngc i believe as director of numismatic research!!

 

kudos to david on such fine books
