Yeoman, R.S. A GUIDE BOOK OF UNITED STATES COINS. 40th edition [1987]. Racine, 1986. 12mo, original red leatherette, gilt. 270, (2) pages; text illustrations. Inscribed and signed by R.S. Yeoman to Margo Russell on the front flyleaf. Fine. The special issue published for the 1986 ANA convention dinner, featuring a design in the style of a medal on the front cover recognizing "Wisconsin's Great Numismatists," and depicting Henry O. Granberg, Chet Krause and R.S. Yeoman. It is generally stated that only 500 copies of this issue were produced, though some believe the number was more like 350. The number of copies autographed by editor R.S. Yeoman, of course, is far smaller: indeed this is the first signed copy we've ever offered. That this copy is inscribed to longtime Coin World editor Margo Russell makes it all the more special.
