NEW BOOK: EXONUMIA OF PARAGUAY

Pre-orders are being taken for Raúl Olazar's new book in Spanish on the exonumia of Paraguay. Here's a Google-translated description from the publisher's website. -Editor

Moneda Privada en el Paraguay - La historia a través de la exonumia
Private Currency in Paraguay - History through Exonumia
Raúl Olazar

A more detailed and illustrated research work possible (I have no doubt that there will be a more advanced Volume 2, because it has very much to be increased), which was born from the passion and curiosity awakened in my tokens and vouchers from Paraguay. The objective is to disseminate the history of private money in our country — a system that plays a very important role in history, but that is still quite unknown both for collectors and for Paraguayan people in general.

My idea was to give continuity to the legacy of two great numismatists that our country has and that now rest on another plane; We also offer a solid foundation to new collectors, teaching institutions and numismatists interested in knowing more about the history of private money, its antecedents, creation and circulation.

From now on it is clear that this is not a catalog with prices, but rather an illustrated guide with images of existing parts. Embora does not mention values, the book indicates on its face reference to some levels of rarity. Everything that still needs to be learned, we know, we can reach a second volume.
