I just read Glenn Peterson's note regarding his upcoming
presentation at the BHNC meeting. Are these presentations recorded? I am unable
to attend, and would enjoy learning about the remarriages of which he speaks.
It would be great if I could buy a recording or a transcript.
Thanks,

A note from the editor: I had a great time at the ANA
Show. Many highlights and comments, here's a brief summary:
-I had the opportunity to view Glenn Peterson's extensive
collection of Capped Bust Half Dollars
-Traffic in Chicago
is something I am glad I do not have to deal with but once per year
-David Perkins had a display of Capped Bust Half Dimes that
was beautiful
-I sold a bunch of coins (trying to raise money for a goal
my family is working toward) and the dealers and collectors that bought the
coins made the transactions easy
-I worked "behind the table" a couple of days for
Rich Uhrich Rare Coins and had a great time. I liked the perspective on
the hobby that this role reversal provided. Always enjoyable to work with
Rich, plus his other table assistants Len Augsburger and Bill Bugert
-The JRCS "open house" on Thursday night was
well-attended by collectors of all series of capped bust silver
-From my perspective, the interest in late die state capped
bust half dimes – the coins with cuds – is pretty healthy. There was demand from what I sold from my
collection, what Rich Uhrich sold, and what I observed being sold or displayed on
the bourse floor
-I talked with many other collectors and there were plenty
of good coin stories to hear that came from purchases on the floor, the
auctions, and potential sales/purchases in the future. I would love to receive input from others for
the JR Newsletter about some of the happenings at the ANA
