Our last newsletter of 2013 has a few submissions on various
topics. First, Brad Karoleff wrote:
I am working on an article and need the help of the
membership in locating a few coins to illustrate my article.
Does anyone here own or know where I can find the following
items for illustrations? Full credit will be given to anyone helping me
with the project, if you want to be identified.
I have a couple off center strike bust halves, but would
like a better one to illustrate my article. I am interested, not only in
obverse and reverse photos, but the edge also, which is the focus of my
article. Can anyone supply a coin to be photographed, or the photos I
need? I am looking either for the following coins from the Logan
sale or coins similar to these. Of particular interest are the double
struck "in collar" coins as I do not have any of them in my
collection.
Logan Lot numbers; 2237, 2292, 2334, 2344, 2359, 2385, 2418.
There are other denomination error coins that I am also
looking for from the Logan sale.
They are:
1818 Off center strike bust quarter lot 1849, or another
like it.
1814 Off center strike bust dime lot 2015, or another like
it.
1827 JR4 dime double struck lot 2065, or another like it.
Thank you all in advance for your help.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Now that our holiday season is drawing to a close I would
like to again invite potential speakers to give a presentation at the 2014 EAC
convention in Colorado Springs.
Topics can include early copper, early silver, literature or related
history. Your passion and willingness to share with an eager audience is
the only absolute requirement, so let's hear from some new folks. I need
to get a schedule into Pennywise and will also need details for the program for
the May 1-4 convention. Thanks...I look forward to hearing from you at
