UNITED STATES GOLD COINS, AND ILLUSTRATED HISTORY
by Bowers, Q. David
- Used
- Fine
- Hardcover
Wolfeboro, NH: Bowers and Merena Galleries, Inc., 1987. Third printing. Hardcover. Fine. Third printing. While gold dollars, eagles, double eagles, and other coins are incredibly interesting, much of their appeal is quintessential, and lies not between the surfaces of the coins themselves, but, rather, in the romantic history and background. The gold discovery in the Carolinas, the California Gold Rush, the Cripple Creek Gold District, and other locals are described and illustrated, and the very function of gold in American lore, legend, and finance is discussed. 415 pages with photographs, engravings, announcement posters, coin production lists, bibliography and index. Bound in original red leatherette with lettering stamped in gilt. A fine and bright copy. Appears as new.
