to the CCF! As a big time numismatic book collector, I can say this is a tougher book to find with only 1000 copies made. Though it's not impossible, there is one copy on
ebay currently for sale at $400.00 a bit too much IMO. It's worth probably around $250-300 range. If you have an
ebay account that is one way to go. otherwise there are two rare book dealers but they will not offer you as much as they need to make a profit, I'd bet the value to them is in the $150-175 range at most. The last one I know sold at auction went for $60.00 way back in 2005 as part of the John J. Ford, Jr. auction by Stacks Lot #1454
This book doesn't come up often at auctions, David Fanning (above) holds regular auctions and that maybe a good way to maximize your profit on selling it, you may want to call and discuss that with him or his wife and partner Maria. He is currently working on items for the next auction now, so you'd need to move fast if that is an option.

https://www.numisbook.com/Both are dealers I consider friends and I've spent more on books with them in the past few years than coins. They are both straight shooters, honest and trustworthy.
The other issue is the book is fairly old and many advancements have come along in that particular field of collecting, much newer books as well, so the book is really wanted only as a collectible in it's own right for the book more than the information contained within.
