I was looking at some of the prior posts and it seems like there are a lot of older books in the public domain about British numismatics, so I was thinking about starting a thread where we can post links to places where you can read it online for free since acquiring a physical copy of some older books in decent condition is near impossible unless you want to pay a fortune.

For example:

The Token Money of the Bank of England can be found in its entirety at Google Books here: http://books.google.com/books?id=FIdAAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA3&dq=The+Token+Money+of+the+Bank+of+England&hl=en&ei=Sj7cToP0LeWlsQKokb3pDQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CD8Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q&f=false

The copper, tin and bronze coinage and patterns for coins of England can be found via Google Books here: http://books.google.com/books?id=EmwCAAAAYAAJ&pg=PR15&dq=English+Copper+tin+and+bronze+coins&hl=en&ei=dT_cTqrdKYPisQK66NjwDQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=9&ved=0CHMQ6AEwCA#v=onepage&q&f=false

Generic Lad, there is already a "useful links" thread in the "free for all" thread where members post their useful links all in the one place

Oh, yeah I guess there is one... I'll pretend I didn't make this one and just post it over there. Thanks!
