Coinage of Americas Conference Proceedings

The Coinage of Americas Conference (COAC) Proceedings draw together like-themed research on a variety of topics in American numismatics.  Sponsored by the American Numismatic Society (ANS), the first formal conference, America's Copper Coinage, took place in 1985.  The forerunner of the series is a group of papers gathered in Studies on Money in Early America (1976).  The regular series is listed below.
