PHOTOS: DULUTH COIN FIND, HOUSTON ANA DEALERS

David Lange submitted this note on a couple numismatic photographs he recently purchased. Thanks! -Editor

  Boys Find Treasurer 6-27-37

The first is from Acme Newspictures, Inc. and is dated June 27, 1937. It shows two Duluth, Minnesota boys who uncovered a cache of USA gold coins. They are Donald Haglund, 11 (left) and Teddy Tedor, 7. They found a tin containing $1,050 face value comprised of half eagles, eagles and double eagles. The burial was estimated at around 1914, which evidently was the latest date found.

  Kritzman & Herzog

The second photo was taken by Roger Powers of The Houston Post and is dated August 23, 1978. It features Harold Kritzman (left) of Newington, Connecticut showing a coin to Karl Herzog of Odessa, Texas. Given the date, it was almost certainly taken during that year's ANA Convention in Houston. I recognize both of these dealers' names, though I don't believe I ever met either.

It should be noted that while I own these prints the copyrights still may be in effect. This is typical of most of the photos I've acquired over the years, but that doesn't prevent enjoying them.
