Numismatic Books

I am currently having to slim down my personal numismatic library. So, over the next few months I will be listing a number of books for sale on this page. Further information and images are available on request.

I can only ship within the UK and all prices include shipping by Royal Mail. There would also be the option of collecting from the York Coin Fair next January if that goes ahead.
