WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM JANUARY 8, 2017

We have no new subscribers this week. Please consider a gift subscription - send me email addresses of your friends and numismatic correspondents, and help expand our community. We currently have 2,045 subscribers.

This week I'll be travelling to the New York International show, and it's quite possible next week's issue will be a bit late. But fear not, Lord willing and the creek don't rise, I'll get it out as usual.

Another sign I'm getting older:

Me: I went to the doctor's office today and got a hearing exam.
Wife: So what did they say?
Son: He doesn't know - he couldn't hear them.

This week we open with a nice plug from Ron Guth at PCGS, a note from the NBS Treasurer, a final reminder and a new batch of highlights for the Kolbe & Fanning New York auction, one new book and one review.

Other topics this week include Bob Lemke of Krause Publications, Al Overton's Bust Half Dollars, the Joseph Brothers, numismatic literature dealers M. A. Powills and Fred Lake, Littleton Coin Company, recent strong auction sales, more Newman paper money, and the coins of Janus, the God of January.

To learn more about Wayne and Garth, Ars Classica catalogues, the first numismatic book, Frank Causey Wilson’s Monthly Rare Coin Bulletin, numismatic mirrors, Souvenir Fractional Gold, the Jewish-American Hall of Fame medals, replica Nobel prize medals, the 1878 Balloon Ascent over Paris medal, the 1942 glass pattern cent, and janiform heads, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
