WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM NOVEMBER 7, 2010
We have no new email subscribers this week. We now have 1,388 email subscribers, plus 91 followers on Facebook, including Marius Ringsrud, Paulie Beretta and Darren Burgess. Last's week's Kolbe & Fanning ad featuring Evelyn's 1697 Discourse of Medals inadvertently excluded the book's title. My fault - sorry. The corrected ad runs below. This week we open with an announcement from numismatic booksellers Kolbe & Fanning, a new book from Roger Burdette, and three book reviews. In the news is a blockbuster acquisition of colonial currency at Colonial Williamsburg and the sale of an Olympic Gold medal for over $300,000. Other topics this week include Louis Eliasberg's unique 1877-CC No Arrows Dime, the "New Frontier" Congressional Gold medal designs, and an unusual early Roman coin counterfeit. To learn about Hobby Protection Act regulations, some high-priced numismatic ephemera, Fred reed's next book, and the medal of minting machinery makers Taylor & Challen, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
