Wanted - UK Catalogs - Peck / Freeman/ ESC

9 posts

» Quick access to the last post

I need the following catalogs in either print or DVD format -

English Copper, Tin and Bronze Coins in the British Museum 1558 - 1958 - Peck

The British Bronze Penny 1860 - 1970 - Freeman

English Silver Coinage from 1649 - Seaby & Rayner


Editions are not important although the later revisions would be mildly preferable. Willing to offer generous trade in high quality coins for well preserved specimens.
Non illegitimis carborundum est.  Excellent advice for all coins.

Truly wish I could help Phil, all the best for the search in any case.
I don't have any of those but I do also want them.

I have all Krause world coins editions (all digital copies) along with Spink Standard catalogue of British coins 2015 and CC 2015, 1760-1970.

Not sure if that second link is the correct book. :)

The second link says more than 10 available, if it is the correct book.
The third link is an auction, and just over one hour remaining.

Just saw that and bought one! and a copy of the Bronze Coinage of Great Britain. :)

This I assume is the second print? 1960 Edition.

Thanks guys. Sorry I'm late responding, I've been off my feet for a day or so.

You can immediately see my problem - only one of the sellers is willing to ship to the US and he's asking around $25 shipping for a single book. I was hoping that somebody had a copy they no longer used which they might be willing to trade for coins and send over using the relatively inexpensive media mail system.

The ESC is the easiest to find, followed by Freeman. Those are pretty good prices, far cheaper than I could get them for, even if I could find them. The Peck catalog though.... that's going to be a real bear..... $100 - $150 for a hard copy is just unrealistic in this digital age of $5 DVDs.

If anyone would be willing to pick up the ESC and Freeman books via BIN and swap them for coins (my coin budget is seriously overextended) I'd be willing to offer quite generous terms which would also cover your shipping costs. Please send a message if this sounds like an interesting proposition.

Similarly if anyone turns up a Peck being offered at a bargain price I'd be most happy to offer a similar deal which would more than cover your costs. Please contact me if you spot one, that way we can avoid two or more well meaning friends starting a bidding war or multiple buyers via BIN.
