FOUR EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS ON COLONIAL COINAGE

From the Vermont Coppers video

The Colonial Coin Collectors Club (C4) has produced four educational videos on Colonial coinage. Specifically, videos on Fugio coppers, Connecticut coppers, Vermont coppers, and New Jersey coppers. All four videos were placed on the C4 website this week and can be found at: http://colonialcoins.org/c4media/

These videos were prepared in conjunction with Lianna Spurrier, our producer, and are designed to present a short introduction to each series. The videos depict a brief history of the coins along with information on how they are collected today. In preparing the videos, C4 drew upon the expertise of several individuals including Q. David Bowers (Vermonts), Roger Siboni and Ray Williams (New Jersey coppers), and Christopher McDowell (Connecticut and Fugio coppers).

C4 is currently working on an additional video on Massachusetts coppers that should be finalized in another month. The officers and directors of C4 are very pleased with these educational videos and hope that through the use of this media we can reach a wider audience. The videos help fulfill C4's charter mission of educating the public about colonial numismatics.

After one year, C4 intends to license the videos to the Newman Portal so they can reach even more people.
