This week we open with a research literature sale, one new book, new Whitman coin albums, an obituary, updates from the Newman Numismatic Portal, notes from readers, and more.

Many thanks to Ian Marshall, who was able to provide a copy of our May 11, 2008 issue, when we switched over from plain text to a spiffy new format with color and images. We'll add this history-making issue to our archive.

Other topics this week include numismatic editing, engravers John Gregory Hancock and his son, New Orleans gold eagles, artist signatures, the Central States show, numismatic association items, auction previews, Australia's new kangaroo, and Trump's new signature.

To learn more about coins of the Kuninda kingdom, the Honduran Provisional Eight Reales, proof silver coinage, numismatic literature Instagram reels, Ed Schedler's counterstamp, the Vexator token, Victor David Brenner's hidden signature, the semiquincentennial coins, the 1787 Immunis Columbia, Civil War Tokens, QR codes on banknotes, a numismatic whist match, and the dealer who attended shows in his underwear, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
