Question
Please refer me to a few coin appraisers in the Ft. Lauderdale or Hollywood, Florida areas.

I believe that I have an 8 Spanish reales coin.

I need to go to the library to look in the World Coin Book.  This was a suggestion you gave to another inquirer.
Thank you.

Answer
Hello Deborah,                      

The book is in the reference section of the library titled "the Standard Catalog of World Coins" and is a great reference. There is one volume for every one hundred years on the dates of the coin so you may want the 1700 to 1800 volume.

Here are some American Numismatic Assoc. members in your area, as requested.
