Silver Dollars 1794-1804
By Q. David Bowers
The second edition of the standard work on early dollars, The Encyclopedia of United States Silver Dollars 1794–1804, is now available. The first edition of the book was published 20 years ago in 1993 as part of Silver Dollars and Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia by Q. David Bowers. The 1993 edition is long out of print and used copies have sold for $400 and up. The new stand-alone, full-color edition covers early dollars separately on 343 pages of quality paper. The new volume includes:
- Detailed history of the early Philadelphia Mint by
R.W. Julian - Easy-Finding Guide to die varieties
- Yearly listings by Bowers Borckardt (BB) numbers as assigned in 1993
