U.S. CATHOLIC MEDAL INFORMATION SOUGHT

 

As you have read in a previous issue of The E-Sylum, George Cuhaj was awarded an Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society grant for a catalog project researching medals of the United States Catholic Hierarchy, Cathedrals and Dioceses.

The scope of the work will include portrait medals depicting bishops, archbishops and cardinals. Renderings of their coat-of-arms, diocesan shields and cathedral views are also of interest. Catholic seminary awards will also be included. Looped and ribboned medals will also be included.

If you have some of these, Cuhaj is willing to correspond and share an Excel list of some 450 known pieces (including metal and size varieties) to see if you may have an elusive item which he would like to include. Thank you for your interest and assistance. That excel file can be requested directly from him at George.cuhaj@yahoo.com.
