Freeman newest edition backorder

[SilverAge3]

Hi

Does anyone around know how long the delay is on the backorder for the new edition? I finally put in an order, though wish I had done so when it was on-hand.

Thanks

I seem to recall that it's out of print. Message Chris Perkins to check.

Did you order via: https://coinpublications.com/product/the-bronze-coinage-of-great-britain-freeman/

If so, it'll be reasonably fast. I have a few in Germany that I use to fulfil international orders, as postage is much cheaper from here. The UK warehouse has 2 or 3 left at the moment and I just ordered a small re-print yesterday, so with any luck no one will notice the gap.

Just out of interest, when is the next Collectors' Coins GB (the pre-decimal one) likely to be coming out? The last one was 2020 !  I know bullion price volatility will be affecting values significantly, but even so, it'd be great to have an updated and revised edition soon!!

I know, it's embarrassing that there hasn't been one for so long. Ideally I think I'd like to hand the reigns to someone else to do that and just be the publisher, if you know anyone!

I ordered through that yes, directly from the link on the forum's homepage. Incidentally, I am international, so that sounds like good news to me.

 

Thanks.

I decided to order it today from your link because of this post  

Now I just need the other one and I'll have two really nice references!
