TimMedhurst Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Just reliving my teenage years through this book. I bought it when I was about 17, it's fantastic, mainly because of the engravings. It is Volume II of 'Old England' printed in 1854. Lots of coins, portraits and architecture, ties it in all nicely!Worth getting hold of if you can, even if it is just to look at the Victorian coin engravings. Cheers,Tim Quote
