  Workman's Books Eighth Bid Sale
A Fine Selection of Numismatic and Treasure Books, Auction Catalogs and Magazines

Workman's Books' eighth bid sale of rare and out-of-print books, auction catalogs and magazines is currently in the final stages of cataloging. The sale will close on Saturday, April 25, 2026 at 10:00 AM EDT. This upcoming sale features an exceptional selection of rare and hard-to-find books, auction sale catalogs, magazines, journals, and other media centered on Latin American, U.S. and world numismatics, shipwrecks, sunken treasure, lost treasure, treasure hunting, lost mines, and treasure in the American West. Highlights include specialized works such as Spanish Coins in Mozambican Waters: The Numismatic Collection of the Sao Jose (1622), The Un-real Reales on counterfeit portrait eight-reales, and The Encyclopedia of Roman Imperial Coins (ERIC).

Collectors of New World treasure will appreciate Spanish Colonial Gold Coins in the Florida Collection, The Milled Columnarios of Central and South America, and multiple works tied to famous shipwrecks including the Nuestra Senora de Atocha and 1715 Plate Fleet. The offering is rounded out with historic material such as an 1817 History of the Wars Occasioned by the French Revolution, auction catalogs, and the comprehensive Numismatica Espanola (1474–2020), making this a well-curated sale for both advanced collectors and researchers alike.

This sale is being held through the online venue iCollector, and all registrations, approvals, and bids will be handled there. The lots will be closing on a timed interval with extensions for any bids placed within 5 seconds of closing. If you already have an iCollector account, you still must "GET APPROVED" to bid for each sale by entering and confirming your information for this bid sale, like reviewing your shipping information and choosing your preferred way of payment.

Even though the sale is several weeks away, now is the perfect time to get approved and register, as any registration issues can certainly be accommodated more easily in advance. Registration is always FREE (no extra fees or percentages for bidding online). Once you are registered and approved, you will receive notices by email closer to the date of the sale once the lots are uploaded and ready for bidding. The anticipated date the lots will go live is March 29, 2026.
