New Large-Format Book From ANA Reveals History Through American Coinage
Past Tense, an entertaining, large-format book of author
Rod Gillis’ colorful “Past Tense” monthly column, which appeared in
The Numismatist magazine from July 2011 through March 2020. The book is available from the
American Numismatic Association (ANA) for $21.95 USD, plus $4.50 for shipping and handling.
