Watch List notes:

Richard Stuart's personal copy of The Forgotten Mint of Colonial Panama (2005), by Jorge Proctor, copy #16 of 150 made. The seminal work on Panama cobs by one of the mostly highly regarded research numismatists in the business, this specimen being Richard Stuart's personal copy, in mint condition, out of print and very rare and important as the only place to find photos of a majority of the known specimens of Panama cobs, with full pedigrees and die information for each. The full subtitle of this book is A Look into the Production of Coins in America during the 16th Century and Panama's Spanish Royal House for Minting Coins. Hardbound, 329 pages. Ask anyone--this book has been unavailable and hard to get for at least ten years! Signed and inscribed by author to noted Central America collector Richard Stuart.
