Manuscript Collections, Collections

Collection includes the original dealer description for each coin, inventories and appraisals, and some notes by Handshu. Most of the documentation consists of the dealer and auction catalogs Handshu selected his coins from and issues of periodicals which provide an overview of the market for coins. Handshu’s reference books on coins have been cataloged separately for the Library’s collection.
