I don't believe we've discussed this book before. It's available from Rare Collectibles TV. Their website describes it as "A must have for numismatists, connoisseurs of fine coins and history buffs, Rick Tomaska and Jack McNamara's 2021 Numismatic Hall of Fame book showcases the remarkable and rare coins placed with clients of their Private Advisory Coin Team during 2021. From shipwreck coins rescued from the depths of the ocean to rare territorial issues, this collection runs the gamut of United States coinage. Featuring 115 pages of RCTV's industry leading and spectacular coin photography, this is a collection you will want to display and refer to again and again. Forward by numismatists and authors, Rick Tomaska and Jack McNamara."
