For anyone interested, a new book will be coming out soon on British tokens=
of the 17th, 18th and 19th century. The information was posted to one of m=
y other groups a week or 2 back, and I asked the publisher, Paul Withers of=
Galata publishing=A0if it would be ok to cross post the information to ano=
ther group that=A0may have members interested in buying a copy, and he had =
no problem with that. I own several of their publications on English Hammer=
ed coins, and they are really great books for attributing, and from the sou=
nd of the new tokens book, I'm sure it will be a great addition to any numi=
smatic library. The info is below, taken from his post to the other group, =
and if you'd like to have a copy, just contact galata and have them get in =
touch with you when everything is ready to send out. I pay them via paypal.=

Yes, please do post details of our book to other groups, we are always keen=
to sell our product direct to the public as that way we make 30% more, whi=
ch means that we have that much more money to spend on travel and research.

more than postage in the UK.
