417 pages. Index. Appendices. Footnotes. List of sixty black and white illustrations. A rare surviving copy of this important reference, made all the more engaging by today's environment of competing fiat currency devaluations. "Hitherto Numismatists when stydying the Origines of Coinage had confined themselves to the materials presented to them in the earliest money of Lydia, Greece and Italy, and on the other hand the Metrologists had almost completely limited their range of observation to the systems of Babylon, Egypt, Greece and Rome. As the Comparative Method has yielded such excellent results in the study of other human institutions, I have endeavoured by its aid to get some new principles which may throw some fresh light on the first beginnings of monetary and weight systems." - from Preface. Attractive gilt decoration upon green front board. Legible gilt lettering upon backstrip. Average external soiling and wear. Several chips from and lengthy openings along backstrip which has become brittle with age. Narrow opening along most of front hinge. Back hinge open. Bookplate discretely removed inside front board.

238 pages including index. A definitive study of the past, present, and future of the metal that Keynesian economists and political schemers have denounced as a 'barbarous relic." The war on gold began several centuries ago, when politicians discovered they could print limitless amounts of paper currency for a small fraction of the cost of using gold as money. A particularly timely title as gold once again struggles to attain it's true market value. Author was a Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution for War, Revolution and Peace from 1968 to 1973. Moderate wear. Unmarked. Pages gently age-toned. Binding intact. A clean and sound copy. Book

"Beginning with detailed geological analysis of the platinum-group metals, Professor Sutton goes on to describe the technology involved in locating and mining these metals. Next, he carefully details current world supplies: in the Marxist countries, in the West, and in the United States. A careful study is presented of the fluctuations and relations of prices for metals in the platinum group as well as trading in the metals, economic projections and investment in strategic platinum.... A complete account of the strengths and weaknesses of platinum-group metals as investments, with the pitfalls and dangers, and possible rewards. A most authoritative guide for those interested in making a profit from inflation by investing in precious metals." - from dust jacket. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear.
