Peter Preston-Morley of Dix Noonan Webb in London submitted this information about the 2019 IAPN book prize awarded by the International Association
Professional Numismatists. Thank you. -Editor
Peter writes:
This year there are 20 titles for consideration, and I attach a full list of them, including details of ordering information.
The Prize, which is worth Sw Fr 1,000, is awarded annually to the book voted by members of the IAPN as the most deserving, not necessarily from a commercial
standpoint. Voting takes place at the IAPN's General Assembly, which this year will be held in Carefree, AZ, on Wednesday May 15th. The Prize was first awarded
in 1982, when it was won by the late Dr Martin Price. Since then other winners have included Philip Grierson, Mark Blackburn, Robert van Arsdell, Robert
Friedberg, Sabine Bourgey, David Vagi, Harrington Manville, Christian Dekesel, Sylvia Hurter, Italo Vecchi, Hugo Vanhoudt and, last year, the British scholar
Paul Stevens.
