A new edition of the Colonial Coin Collectors Club book on the coinage of Machin's Mills has been published. Here's the announcement.
-Editor
The authors of the first edition of The History and Coinage of Machin's Mills are pleased to
announce that a new second edition is being printed and should be available by
Thanksgiving. The second edition is a significant update of the first edition, containing much new
material. A new Chapter 7, titled Additional Collector Information, contains essays on the
British Union Jack, spread planchets, and a discussion on die manufacturing during the
Confederation period. Chapter 8, the coin catalog, has been extensively revised.
New theories
surrounding these coins are discussed, challenging existing thinking.
New photographs of die
states as well as new examples abound in this edition. We are confident that the reader will find
this 2nd edition informative as well as provocative. It is illustrated throughout with color images,
handbook size (6"x9"), and has a glossy hard cover. The second edition can be purchased from
Kolbe/Fanning (https://www.numislit.com) or Charles Davis Numismatic Literature
(https://www.numisbook.com).
