WELCOME TO GALATA
Here you will find our extensive stock of new and secondhand numismatic books for sale. Many of them are one off, out of print items. We photograph all of our books and coins and give accurate descriptions of the items for sale if there are blemishes - or good features. The image is of the actual item being sold - unless we have more than one in stock, in which case we describe and illustrate the least good example, so you may get one that is better than described or illustrated.
