EARLY  ASSAYERS' WRITING SAMPLES SOUGHT  

   David Cassel writes: "In my research in the Postage Currency 
   Coins area, I have come across some documents that may have 
   been written by the hand of Mint assayers, William E. DuBois 
   or Jacob Eckfeldt, circa 1863.  

   In order for me to establish this, I need to have comparison 
   handwriting analyses of each of the men to be reasonably 
   certain who penned the documents that I would like to include 
   in my new book entitled: United States Postage Currency 
   Pattern Coins.  

   Can you or any of your members send me a Xerox of a writing 
   sample of either man or both.  My fax line is 305-662-9400 
   and my mailing address is David Cassel, 5995 SW 97 Street, 
   Miami, Fl. 33156.   I will be very grateful for anyone's 
   assistance."
