I was going to bid on this lot of books, but the seller refuses to ship to Canada.

Hopefully a CCF member picks them up, it's a great price!

I am a World coin collector.
I have Krause World coins covering the last 400 years.
I replace them every 5 years or so, but not with the latest editions, just later editions in better condition.
Usually I buy them as older (and cheaper) editions from coin shops, or at auction.
If at auction, I pick them up personally. Cheaper for me to travel, than pay delivery costs.

I have bought job lots at auction in the same ilk as mentioned above. It can be a good way to set up a numismatic reference libraty.
Currently, I have about 200 books, booklets and numismatic reference papers.

It's worth it for the Early Half Dollar Die Varieties alone. It is the 4th Edition which is the newest one available. Usually $60 + shipping.

Guess they have their reasons though...

It's at the value of the Morgan book alone, right now. I'm no big fan of the 4th edition of the Overton; IMO there's too much errata in that edition and the Third is the preferable choice.

That said, depending on where it looks at the end I might snag the lot.

Ended up selling for $56, which is still quite a discount from what these books usually sell for.

Yeah, it happens too much. Sometimes I think I need a P.O. Box in the states.

That's a nice set of books, but seems nothing compared to what sel has
