Stack’s Bowers Galleries Presents Two Great Books, One Incredible Holiday Price

Stack’s Bowers Galleries is pleased to offer a special holiday price when you purchase two of Q. David Bowers’ recent books. Each book is large-size, hardbound edition, with full color illustrations, written in Dave’s authoritative, interesting and enjoyable style.

The Encyclopedia of United States Silver Dollars 1794-1804

In 1993 Q. David Bowers wrote Silver Dollars and Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia. Long out of print, used copies have sold for $400 and up. This new, full-color 343-page book builds on this as a foundation and covers the early dollars from 1794 to 1804 and includes extensive research and contributions from Dave, as well as experts R.W. Julian, Martin Logies, and Warren Miller. Included is a history of the early U.S. Mint, an easy finding guide to die varieties, listings by Bowers Borckardt (BB) numbers and updated rarity ratings, population data, and notable examples lists.

List price: $49.95

U.S. Liberty Head $20 Double Eagles: The Gilded Age of Coinage

 

This 376-page book has been widely acclaimed and will give you a couple of evenings of interesting, informative reading.  Guaranteed!  Acclaimed author and numismatist Q. David Bowers joins with corporate attorney and economics researcher Robert J. Galiette to take the reader year by year through the history of the Liberty Head double eagle. From the Gold Rush in California through the American Civil War and the rapid development of the American economy to the hard times of the early 1890s into the prosperous early 20th century, the double eagle was the right coin at the needed time and became the world’s standard. During this era the $20 double eagle financed inventions in transportation, telecommunications, electricity, manufacturing and science, while supporting an economy in which immigrants from around the world contributed their energies to build a nation. This entertaining book is a journey through these years of change and growth, with a focus on numismatics, history and culture.

List Price: $49.95

 

Each book is quality hardbound, color illustrated, and on fine paper. No expense has been spared to make these beautiful. For a limited time, purchase both books, each personally autographed by Q. David Bowers, for the package price of $49.95 plus $15 shipping.
