I haven't been able to get out much, but while doing my winter research I came across a great old book called The Metropolitan Complete Coin Book published in 1862.

Enjoy!

Neil,

Thanks for posting this! That book is incredible. I'd love to have a dozen or so of its pages to frame and hang.

Neat find. I like looking at old books.

Suppose that's one way to find older coins...by picture :)
The books sure have come a long way since then, but
would be cool to find something like that.
 
I recently seen one of those on a site Holabird ,maybe,that had a hefty price tag!!!
 
Nice Find !
