Last year, Alan Roy published the first edition of his passion project, a book on Royal Canadian Mint medals and exonumia. A new edition is now available for sale.
-Editor
The second edition of The Medals & Exonumia of the Royal Canadian Mint is a 152-page, coil-bound listing of medals issued by Canada's national mint during its more than one hundred years of operation. It covers all known medals distributed by the mint. These include pieces sold directly to the public, issued in conjunction with events sponsored by the mint, and distributed by them at meetings and trade shows.
It also includes medals issued as tokens of appreciation to mint employees. Another section of the catalogue lists medals featuring the Royal Canadian Mint as a theme. Each piece is illustrated, and any known technical information is also provided. An estimate of value is also included for each piece.
The new edition includes several newly-discovered pieces and improved photographs. It also has a new, visual table of contents to make locating medals easier.
The Issue price is $25. Shipping is extra, $15 within Canada. Contact me at
alroy477@gmail.com if you are interested. NOTE: prices are in Canadian dollars.
Sounds great - congratulations!
