One coin, for years the only known 1933 twenty-dollar Double Eagle in the world, has inspired the passions of thieves and collectors, lawyers and charlatans.  Its extraordinary story winds across seventy years and three continents, linking an almost unbelievable cast of characters: Theodore Roosevelt and a Philadelphia gold dealer with the underworld connections; Egypt's King Farouk and an apple-cheeked Secret Service agent; London's most successful coin dealer and a retired trucker from Amarillo, Texas.  Alison Frankel's stylish narrative hums at the pace of a thriller.  Her meticulously researched descriptions and vivid character studies bring the coin's history to life and illuminate the world of coin collecting, where the desire to possess often borders on madness.

This 323 page softcover is illustrated with black and white photographs.  The cover has some edge and rubbing wear and creases.  Internally it is in a good, tight, clean condition.

Postage quoted is for items posted within Australia. Overseas customers are more than welcome to email me for a postage quote. Local Pick-up is not available.
