The E-Sylum: Volume 3, Number 14, April 2, 2000, Article 7 THIS WEEK IN NUMISMATIC HISTORY By coincidence I received in the mail this week lot #156 from Charles Davis' recent sale. Dated April 2, 1874, it is a "Circular to Collectors" from J. Colvin Randall and John W. Haseltine describing their efforts to strike copies of Lovett's 1861 Confederate Cent from the original dies obtained from the engraver. Most of what is known today about these restrikes can be traced to this interesting piece of numismatic ephemera.
