HOWARD BERLIN VISITS A.H. BALDWIN & SONS

Numismatourist Howard Berlin submitted this update on his book and a report on his recent travels. Thanks! -Editor

Numismatourist logo I finally finished my Numismatourist book and it’s at the publisher for processing. It covers upwards of 170 or museums in about 75 countries that report to have numismatic exhibitions (coins, paper money, tokens, and/or medals). There are more than 300 images. Further information can be seen (e.g., the preface) on www.numismatourist.com. Additional pictures can be seen on the book’s Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Numismatourist/403886586362375 .

With the book finished, my wife and I visited Dublin, Belfast, and returned to London for a few days before heading back to the U.S. While in London, I had a chance to stop by the offices of A.H. Baldwin & Sons, the well-known auction house, tucked away in the corner of Adelphi Terrace near the Embankment tube station.

Caroline Newton I wanted to meet Caroline Newton, who works in Baldwin’s PR and Marketing Department. She helped provide an image of a rare Islamic coin for my book. Wayne, your E-Sylum editor, has also had the pleasure of meeting Caroline when he was temporarily working in London a few years ago.
