MORE NUMISMATIC BOOKS ON CD/DVD

Here's another item that didn't make it into last week's issue. Bruce W. Smith did some more research and located a number of eBay sellers of numismatic books on CD/DVD. Thanks! These can be handy to have in this format, even if the files are already available free on the web. -Editor

I looked around on eBay and found quite a few numismatic books and book collections. This list is just the highlights. These items can be found by signing in to your eBay account, going to ADVANCED SEARCH, then click BY SELLER in the left box. Type in the name of the seller you want to see.

At these prices, it's worth buying these CD's even if you don't collect those areas. There are probably other similar CD's on Amazon or elsewhere. There are also many CD collections of works on history. Oh, yes, some of these are DVD. I presume DVD's will play on any recent computer, though the sellers say you may need to download some free software.
