SPINK FIXED PRICE LIST

  Hadrien Rambach of Spink writes: "As in every issue of the
  Numismatic Circular, the oldest fixed-price list in the numismatic
  world, founded in 1892, and now published every two months,
  the April issue of Spink's Circular will offer many rare and
  out-of-print numismatic books. There are almost 250 items in
  this interesting issue, on many different aspects of the subject
  from Ancient Greek coins (with for example 3 scarce titles by
  T.S. Bayer, 1734-1738), the Royal Mint (the important work
  by G.F. Ansell, 1870), also books on Cufic coins (the two
  volume catalogue of the Borgia collection, 1782-1795), and
  other Islamic coins (including an extremely rare 1794 publication
  of O.G. Tychsen), - The section including books on Islamic
  coinages is larger than usual. As always there are a few books
  with interesting provenances (the Farouk catalogue with a letter
  from Douglas  Liddell, a 1st edition of Historia Numorum with
  letters from E.S.G. Robinson, C. Seltman and G.F. Hill, etc.).
  However the ¾ morocco-bound copy of E. Babelon's almost
  complete Traité des monnaies grecques et romaines (1901-
  1933), and a nice copy of Adam Berg's New Munzbuech
  (1604, the most attractive 'coin-book' of the 16th and 17th
  centuries) undoubtedly are the most notable. A large selection
  of coins is, as usual, also included."
