Dennis Tucker submitted this note of interest to bibliophiles and their heirs.

In the upcoming second edition of Beth Deisher’s Cash In Your Coins: Selling the Rare Coins You’ve Inherited, we include a new photograph and caption illustrating an important concept: “Numismatic books can be valuable, too. Make an inventory of titles and copyright dates.” (This is in chapter 9, on creating an estate inventory.)
I took one of our staff photographers into the Whitman Publishing library to get a photo of the concept. He took a picture of several early-1900s bound volumes of The Numismatist, Evans’s Illustrated history of the U.S. Mint, a copy of Bowers’s Collecting Rare Coins for Profit, and a couple world-coin books (Monnaies Francaises and Welt Munzkatalog).
