Description: So-Called Dollars was first published in 1963 making it the first price guide for token keepsakes. Prior to the book "crown-sized" tokenswere ignored in the coin collecting community and were generally considered to be worthless, things that would be relegated to attic"junk boxes." Harold Hibler and Charles Kappen's research led to their publishing of one of the first books to categorize and place values on tokens. As a result, this book provided information that stimulated awareness and boosted interest in the hobby of collecting tokens. Some pieces, once considered worthless, now sell for hundreds and even thousands of dollars. Included with this book is the 1978 price supplement to this book.I am not a grader of books so I can not give a professional grading to this particular. In my opinion it is in very good collectable condition. The cover is virtually free from any flaws which would include damage caused by water, mildew, drops, marking, etc. The same thing can be said for the book's pages. I found there to be no markings, torn pages, dog ears, stains, odors, etc. The pages are tightly held to the spine so there are no issues in using this for research. It came from a smoke-free home so there are no smoke odors. Nor are there any other issues with odors. The 1978 price supplemental issue is in pristine condition.The dust cover, however, is another story. Unlike the book that it covers it is in poor condition. It is torn and pieces have come off. If a dust cover is for protecting a book, this certainly did its job. Payment is expected no later than 48 hours after the end of the auction or immediately if the buy it now option is selected. I will carefully package and ship this book no later than the next business day after Ebay has notified me that payment has been made. This book will be shipped using Media Mail postage with the Postal Service. No returns will be permitted on this listing.
