I'm not sure cachet applies to learned numismatic works? It's very much a minority market! Ask 100 people if they know what book Peck wrote and I'd be very surprised if even 1 got it right (it would definitely be a Pointless answer )...
Indeed, mine's also the 1964 edition, but no dust cover.
When you think of the time, hard work and sheer dedication that went into producing the book, you really do have to take your hat off to Peck.
I doubt we shall see his like again.
Can I ask a favour…does anyone recognise the tickets accompanying this coin?
some of the details in the right hand ticket looks Comber, but what of the left?
