SO-CALLED DOLLAR RESEARCH?

"Wayne…Thank Q for continuing to send info on the organization - it's very much appreciated.

Question: Do you know if anyone is working on an update of the old and revered H&K (HIBLER & KAPPAN) "So-Called Dollars" book? It's in very bad need of updating, and I think someone who is qualified could do the hobby a great service (and probably make a few bucks along the way) by undertaking such a venture. Any knowledge on this? Regards, Bill"

Well, I'm afraid I don't know if any update is in the works, but perhaps one of our readers does. The book is certainly easy to sell these days - it's one of those titles Ken Lowe referred to as "the Kreugerrands of numismatic literature" - books that aren't sexy, but can always be counted on to find buyers.
