KOLBE NUMISMATIC LITERATURE SALE #103 ANNOUNCED 

According to the firm's March 18 press release: "On June 7, 2007 George 
Frederick Kolbe/Fine Numismatic Books will conduct their 103rd auction, 
featuring the second part of the Alan M. Meghrig Library. The 300 lots 
include works on ancient and foreign numismatics but mainly are devoted 
to books and periodicals covering American coins, mint errors, medals, 
tokens, and paper currency. Many obscure and unusual modern works are 
featured; often they are the first we have ever encountered. Beneath a 
calm and measured demeanor, Alan Meghrig has systematically and 
aggressively formed a comprehensive American numismatic library over 
the past thirty plus years. 

"In terms of unusual titles and the various editions and printings of 
mainstream works, Alan's library stands alone. This will become more 
apparent as subsequent portions of the library are sold; many pleasant 
surprises await American numismatic bibliophiles and researchers. 
Following the Meghrig holdings, the sale will also feature a good 
selection of 19th and 20th century American auction sale catalogues, 
offered individually. Catalogues may be ordered by sending $15.00 to 
Kolbe at P. O. Drawer 3100, Crestline, CA 92325 or the catalogue will 
be accessible in May free of charge at the firm's web site 
(www.numislit.com)."
