Detecting related book ideas for Christmas?

[Mr. Digger]

What are some of the better reference books for coins and relics out there related to our hobby? My family asks me for gift ideas all the time. I swing the Nox 800 and I've put the Andy Sabisch book on my list. I'm also aware of Buckleboy William Plummer's book "Relics: A Guide to Identification". Any other suggestions?

"Artifacts of Colonial America" by Igor Noel Hume, "American Artifacts of personal adornment 1680 - 1820 by Carolyn L. White and "Discovering British Military Badges and Buttons" by R.J Wilkinson-Luthum have been useful resources in understanding and attempting to identify many of the artifacts I have found.

Thx I do have the Hume book but I'll check out the White and the British military suggestions

American Military Belt Plates by Michael J. O'Donnell is an excellent reference book and even if you have never found a military plate, it's fun to just look thru and read. I have referenced it a few times for Belt Plates that I have found, and used it to I.D. a few plates for some of my club members.
