WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM MAY 19, 2013

Wayne Homren

We have no new subscribers this week. We have 1,650 email subscribers, plus 232 followers on Facebook. Welcome to our latest advertiser, Steve Hayden. Thank you for your support!

Before we start, here's a big early Happy Birthday wish from The E-Sylum to numismatic researcher and author Eric P. Newman. Born May 25, 1911, Saturday is his 102nd birthday!

On a sadder note, this week we open with word of the passing of token and medal dealer Richard Rossa. Next up is a reminder from David Sklow of his upcoming literature sale, a new online numismatic periodical, and three book reviews.

Other topics include the Breen/Bowers/Ruddy update of the Gilbery Half cent book, coins minted by Scovill Manufacturing, coins in antique glassware, coin spoons, fakes in numismatics, and a hoard of Viking coins.

To learn more about author grants from the Central States Numismatic Society, the Journal of Numismatic Research, the Brazilian Virtual Numismatic Association, engraver Brian Timmins, S.W. Chubbuck's Morse code token, the “Model Artists” peep show, the medal with a chicken helmet and the Contest of Fat Animals during the Sunday before Easter, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
