The latest issue of the JR journal is at the printer!  You can expect to receive your copy in the mail in the next couple of weeks.

In it there is the announcement of the annual meeting at the ANA.  Chris Pilliod will be our guest speaker and his topic is the silver plug dollars of 1795.  If you have one and would like to share it with the membership, please consider bringing it to the meeting. 

At our annual meeting we will award the Jules Reiver Literary Award for 2023 and induct a new member into the JRCS Hall of Fame as well as elect a new slate of officers.  

We look forward to seeing many of you at the show.

Editor adds: The John Reich Collectors Society general meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, August 7 at 8:00 AM in room 12 of the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center. Members and non-members are welcome (great time to sign up if you are not yet a member of the JRCS!)

Ladies and gentlemen. We have reached the “deadline” for submissions for the next issue of the journal and are no way close to having enough content. 

If you have anything near ready please get in touch with me ASAP so we can get out a pre-ANA issue.

 A reminder that the JRCS zoom meeting scheduled for Wednesday May 22 at 7PM EDT will feature a presentation by Brad Karoleff on the Spanish Colonial silver issued by the Mexico City and Potosi mints.  These coins, as you may already know, were legal tender in the US circulating side by side with our beloved Bust Halves until 1857.

Join the meeting to learn something about these interesting coins that helped fuel the American economy in the early to mid 19th century.

Please contact Steve Herrman at herrman102(at)aol.com to receive a zoom invitation to join the meeting on Wednesday.
