ALFRED ROWELL, RESIDENT MEMBER
Gar Travis writes: "At a coin show this weekend I purchased
an 1884 American Numismatic & Archeological Society
member's medal, which is engraved to Alfred Rowell -
Resident Member - Nov. 18th, 1884. Does anyone know
what the term "Resident Member" meant, or if Mr. Rowell is
"known" for any early numismatic research? The full description
of the medal is as follows:
American Numismatic and Archeological Society Member's
Medal, 1884. Bronze, 42mm. By George Hampden Lovett.
Choice Uncirculated. Obv. Naturalistic oak sprig, 3 leaves
under scroll PARVA NE PEREANT ("Let not the small things
perish"), Society name around. Rev. Oak circle, engraved
ALFRED ROWELL / RESIDENT Member/ Nov. 18th/ 1884.
Warm brown chocolate color without toning."
