Crosby, Sylvester S. The Early Coins of America. 1875. Choice Extremely Fine.
9.5 inches x 12 inches x 1.5 inches. Bound in red leather and cloth, the cover protected by an added plastic wrapper that is easily removed. Pictorial plates in black and white. This is an exceptionally well preserved and handsome copy, the cover bright, tight and fresh with no blemishes. All pages are present, virtually all crisp and without tears, some with light to moderate foxing and/or a minor creases. The third front page has a couple of trivial edge tears and splits, previous owner's name HENRY W. EASTMAN / DEC 1886 in pen at upper right. A rare opportunity, as copies of the 1875 edition rarely come this nice.
From the Senator Platt Family Collection, started prior to 1870.
