PERKINS:  STEAMED OR NO? 

   Eric P. Newman was being punny when he submitted the 
   following:  "As to Dave Bowers' interesting comment in the 
   December 24 Bulletin that Jacob Perkins was "highly 
   esteemed" in Newburyport and might have made or used 
   a  Boulton & Watt type steam coining press I surmise that 
   Perkins was not that "highly esteamed" and neither was the 
   U.S.Mint."
