A Guide to the History and Valuation of the Coins of Great Britain and Ireland in Gold, Silver, and Copper: From the Earliest Period to the Present Time

This book has been prepared with the object of supplying, in a single volume, a Guide to the Identification and Valuation of the Coins of England, Scotland, and Ireland, at once accurate, complete, and cheap. The standard works on the subject are so costly, and same are so scarce, as to be out of the reach of the majority of collectors.
