Dealer Westdal dies at 77
Accomplished and versatile numismatic researcher Stewart John Westdal
passed away at his home in San Diego,
Calif., Sept. 28 at the age of 77 after a
prolonged illness.
Mr. Westdal was born in North
Dakota in 1938 and grew up there. He
met his future wife, Bobbie, at George
Washington University in Washington,
D.C. He graduated in 1962, majoring
in history, with a focus on ancient and
medieval eras.
He spent four years in the Army,
including two years in Germany, then he
and his wife moved to San Diego, where
he earned a teaching credential and a
master’s degree.
From 1970-1974 he ran a small coin
shop in downtown San Diego. After working 20 years with university and govern-

Hard to take my own coin advice
In the last week or so I wrote a couple
of blogs online about my early days in the
hobby as I got more deeply involved with
circulation finds. My paper route opened
the hobby doors wider than I had previously been used to.
My customers paid me for their papers,
so I had new change to look through. My
income allowed me to expand my collection.
There is nothing like that feeling of
independence that a job gives you before
life’s many responsibilities set in.
Can you remember the infinite possibilities that numismatics seemed to offer
you when you first got involved? My biggest regret is that I did not jump deeper
into the numismatic pond before the onset
of the need to be mature and responsible
with my finances set it.
I got second round of that great sense
of independence after I graduated college
and landed my job here at Numismatic
News.
I used that new income to make some
truly stupid purchases. I had a Washington
Class of
’63
David C. Harper
quarter set that only needed the 1932-D
and 1932-S to be finished. It was a hodgepodge of a set. Many of the coins I had
pulled out of change a decade before.
Some of the late coins were AU, some
from the 1930s were AG, some that I had
purchased were Mint State, or Brilliant
Uncirculated, as they were called when I
bought them.
It was the kind of set that considering
its origins was logical, but the next step
should have been taken to make all the
coins a uniform grade. I didn’t take it.
Instead, I rushed out to the first show
I could with money burning a hole in my
pocket and bought the 1932-D and 1932S to fill the empty holes. I had completed
the set. Hooray. I felt that elation long
denied me.
But what did I buy? The two quarters
were hardly better than the lousiest quarters in the set. I bought a good 1932-D
and a VG 1932-S. I should have been
eyeing Mint State examples to go with
my very beautiful 1932 that I had bought
while I still had my paper route.
How many times have I written, “Buy
the best you can afford?” There is no way
to count the number, but I should have
obeyed that advice sooner than I did.
I still have the 1932-D and 1932-S
quarters as well as the quarters from the
set that were Mint State, but the bulk
of the set I sold off as junk silver in the
1980s when I thought I had better use for
the money.
What will I do with the remainingpieces? I should have disposed of them
decades ago, when my interest moved to
other areas. But when I decided to keep
them, it seemed like I had all the time in
the world either to move on, or to build
another set. I did neither. Now they just
remind me of opportunities missed.

Stop our bullion coin
designs from stagnating
Our bullion coins were made in order
to raise money to help pay down the
national debt. The gold and silver are the
same today as they were in 1986. Called
Eagles, I would think we would offer different eagles from time to time to excite
the buyer. As it is now just have one (of
any year) and you have a type set. China
changes their Panda on a regular basis.

our bullion designs just stagnating? The
platinum came on the scene and has been
different ever since. Surely we can come
up with some different eagles.
I also have a question I’d like reader
feedback on. Why is John F. Kennedy on
the half dollar? I know he was popular,
and his demise was terrible, but what significant accomplishments had he made?
Not being critical, but many other presidents have come and gone and while not
assassinated, Congress didn’t jump to put
them on a coin.

VIEWPOINT
Caution and technology empty shows?
By Patrick A. Heller
This past Saturday, my company had
a booth at the Kalamazoo (Michigan)
Numismatic Club show. This twice-ayear event has been a popular venue for
decades for collectors and dealers to meet
face to face to conduct business.
The weather was almost perfect for a
coin show. It was wet enough outside that
people would not be doing yard work.
Still, it was not nasty enough to make
travel a danger.
My company staffed a corner booth
in a prime location. We had lots of merchandise on display from ancient coins,
foreign and U.S. collector coins and exonumia to silver bullion coins and bars.
The customer traffic was normal for this
show. Yet about the only areas where we
had any sales were the silver bullion and
exonumia. Sales in other categories were
almost non-existent. To go with minimal
sales, very little merchandise was offered
to us to possibly purchase.
As the show went on, a number of
dealer friends stopped by our booth to
complain that their results on Saturday
were exceptionally poor compared to
prior shows at this venue. This complaint
of a sales slowdown is something we
have been hearing from dealers across the
country for much of this year. So, are collectors really becoming more cautious?
If so, why?
I think that it is probably true that business may be slowing down at many local
coin shows. Yes, I do think that the general public is realizing that the American
economy is faring worse than the politicians and so-called economic experts
are telling us. A general reaction when
the economy looks gloomy is that people
rein in their spending on discretionary
items, with numismatic items being in
this category.
However, I suspect that part of the
reason for the slowdown in local coin
show activity has to do with the expansion of online numismatic sales activity.
As an example, between my own company’s listings on its website and on eBay,
our online sales account for the majority of paper money sales. As a result of
such merchandise selling readily online,
we have insignificant currency inventory
available to take to shows or put in our
showroom displays. Our online sales also
tend to dominate the dollar volume of
exonumia sales and in some other numismatic categories.
I have heard similar stories from a
number of other coin dealers. They tell me
that they leave a lot of their best inventory
at home instead of bringing it to shows
because it sells well online. As a result, a
lot of inventory that would be desirable to
collectors or other dealers does not go to
coin shows.
Now, there are also other contributViewpoint/Page 12

design change.
I am sure Franklin Roosevelt’s cousin
Theodore would be horrified to see this
on our American coins. He wanted beauty
on our circulating coins much like we
see on our platinum coins, which in reality shouldn’t even be called coins as
they were not made for circulation or for
people to see.
The series is called Torches of Freedom.
The Roosevelt dime also features a torch
of freedom, yet it is never redesigned.

ing factors to a slowdown in numismatic
sales at local coin shows and across the
market in general. Gold and silver prices
are down substantially from their peaks
in 2011, with the yellow metal down
about 40 percent and silver almost 70
percent lower. The overall barometers of
American investor sentiment for acquiring physical precious metals are about as
negative as any market watchers have ever
seen. There are spurts of demand after
significant declines in the spot prices,
as happened in the past few months, but
interest has fallen off quickly as there was
not a significant price rebound.
Another factor to consider is the comparative flood of new coins coming from
the U.S. Mint. It was only a few decades
ago when collectors could acquire all
proof and uncirculated coins issued in a
particular year for well under $50. For
example, in 1968 that cost was $7.50.
Today, with all the bullion issues, the
variety of numismatic issues of the bullion issues, and the tag-along coins (such
as the $10 half-ounce gold First Spouse
issues and the 5-ounce silver America
the Beautiful quarters), a collector could
easily spend more than $5,000 to acquire
current year issues. So, you have the U.S.
Mint draining significant funds from coin
collectors that might otherwise be spent
with coin dealers, and you have a fatigue
level of “too many coin issues to keep up.”
Next, you have to consider the kinds of
collector coins the U.S. Mint is producing.
The statehood quarter series was tremendously popular with the general public. In
12
Advisory Committee recommend that the
design that graces the platinum coin also
be placed on the dime? That would make
an interesting series to collector as fun as
the state quarter series.

duction numbers that issue was not there
either.
Is there any reason for this?
Charlie Head
Address withheld
I noticed in my last issue that there
were no production numbers for the
Eleanor Roosevelt First Spouse gold coin.
When I checked with the Mint’s pro-
Editor’s note: The Mint Statistics
pages are intended to list Mint offerings that are still being sold on the Mint
website. Eleanor Roosevelt was removed
because her First Spouse issues are no
longer being available. They went off sale
at the beginning of April. Our last numbers were 1,866 uncirculateds and 2,377
proofs.
contrast, the America the Beautiful series
is of much less interest.
The Presidential dollars started off
being popular with the public, but fell off
quickly enough that the U.S. Mint stopped
putting the coins into circulation.
The 2014 Kennedy half dollar issues
brought a flurry of interest, but not much
coinage coming from the U.S. Mint over
the past few years has really caught the
public fancy.
Maybe next year’s issues honoring the
100th Anniversary of the Liberty Head
(Mercury) dime, Standing Liberty quarter,
and Walking Liberty half dollar might
bring some spark.
I also speculate that the failure of
the U.S. Treasury to abolish the $1 and
$2 Federal Reserve Notes, replacing
them with circulating coins of the same
denominations, is a missed opportunity to
expand interest in numismatics.
Beyond the nuts and bolts of collecting
rare coins and paper money, you also have
to look at the changes in lifestyle of the
youngsters growing up. In my generation,
newspapers were delivered by neighborhood children who also collected payment
from customers. A significant percentage
of paper carriers became numismatists
because of all the change going through
their hands. Today the newspapers themselves collect subscription payments and
many adults deliver the issues.
There has also been a trend for children to grow up using the Internet and
video games for entertainment and communication, reducing interest in collecting
physical objects.
So, while I can understand that many
local coin shows may be generating less
business for the dealers than in years past,
there are several possible contributing
factors making this so beyond collectors
becoming more cautious with their discretionary spending. We must now keep
in mind that there are other areas, such as
online trading, where there is substantial
trading activity that simply did not exist
just a few years ago.

Busy week for news?
Space collectibles have grabbed the
attention of American coin collectors
from time to time.
A dozen gold Sacagawea dollars
sent into space immediately came to
my mind, when I was prompted to think
about space late yesterday afternoon by
the arrival of a press release from Stack’s
Bowers Galleries.
I had to look up which space mission
they were on. My memory is not perfect.
They went aboard the Space Shuttle
Columbia in 1999. Then the coins were
displayed at the American Numismatic
Association convention in Milwaukee
in the summer of 2007. That’s where I
saw them.
By great coincidence, the Stack’s
Bower press release also deals with a
1999 space mission, but it was a more
historical event than a routine shuttle
mission. It deals with China’s first space
ship, the Shenzhou I, which completed
a 21-hour flight after being launched on
e-letters
Nov. 30, 1999.
Aboard were some stamps and coins.
Stack’s Bowers and its Ponterio branch
will hold an auction Dec. 8-9 in Hong
Kong. This material will be featured.
Will Chinese buyers go as wild for
space material as American buyers have
in the past?
This auction will offer good guidance.
In it will be a set of 20- and 100-fen
stamps, and 20- and 100-fen sheets. There
is also a 1986 1 fen coin. Each piece was
notarized by The People’s Republic of
China Beijing Notary Office.
Visit www.stacksbowers.com for additional details.
Another press relase that came my way
yesterday was sent by APMEX, the online
bullion coin dealership.
When I need to know the current prices of bullion coins, checking the APMEX
website I find is the quickest way to do it.
The firm is expanding its numismatic
collectibles offerings.
It says it now has nearly 4,000 coins
and paper money items.
I expect there are many collectors who
will want to browse the offerings. And
like me, they will have to get used to the
idea of the popular bullion website also
becoming a numismatic website.
The two aspects of numismatics, bullion coins and collectible coins, are logically combined from a business point of
view as well as from the point of view of
public perception.
Coins are coins are coins, right?
Purist coin collectors might quibble
with lumping everything together, but
to everyone else, a bullion buyer is a
coin collector.
The APMEX website can be reached at
www.apmex.com.
I see gold is at $1,116.60 and silver is
at $15.22.
While you are checking out bullion
coins, check out the APMEX collectible
coin offerings as well.
from the Oct. 30 Numismatic News E-Newsletter
Here are some answers sent from our e-newsletter readers to Editor Dave Harper. Read more responses at www.numismaticnews.com.
Are reverse proofs just a gimmick to generate more profits for the Mint?
It is my belief that every version of
every coin or medal made by the U.S.
Mint is meant to make money for the Mint
except those made specifically for general
circulation. It is also my belief that some
of the coins made by the Mint are made
to help dealers and certification companies make unreasonable piles of money.
J.B. Hearn Bryant, Ark.
Another Mint product just to make
more money? Well, yeah! Why else?
Bill Blair Catskill Mountains, N.Y.
As a collector, I get a majority of my
coins from the U S Mint. But so is everyone else. Getting a chance to purchase a
14
reverse proof coin is almost like winning
the lottery. While I can only purchase
coins to complete my current collections,
their values are just a little over cost, if
that. Getting a chance to purchase one or
more reverse proofs, gives me a chance
to sell one at a higher price. This may help
my collection to break even sooner while
I must wait 10 or more years just get 100
percent vested. So if the Mint is doing it
to make money, so am I.
David Asbury Omaha, Neb.
Yes. They don’t do them in any organized process, or consistent quantity.
What motive is there?
Kelly Finnegan Spanish Fork, Utah
Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
Yes it is a gimmick a nice one, but
nonetheless a gimmick
William Johnston San Antonio, Texas
Of course they are being put out to
generate profits for the Mint. Just like the
“S” mint America the Beautiful quarters
are. I guess the Mint has to make up for
the loss from minting the cent from somewhere. That being said, I really like the
looks of the reverse proof coins. I would
sooner have them in my collection than
the normal proof coins. The enhanced
Mint State coins are also very beautiful.
Putting out so many different issues during the year has made keeping up with

them all a struggle. I would hope that at
the end of the Presidential dollar series
and the America the Beautiful quarter
series that the Mint takes a step back and
greatly reduces their yearly issues.
Collecting the quarters is starting to get
old, and for the most part, the Presidential
dollar series was a joke as most of them
looked like carnival ride tokens.
I would recommend that the Mint put
out only reverse proof sets from here on
in. I have yet to talk to a collector that
doesn’t appreciate them. The regular proof
set issues do not retain their value and in
many cases can be purchased in the after
market for less than their issue price from
the Mint.
I would recommend that the Mint put
out a special 19th century type set series
for collectors. There is no doubt that a
series such as that would spark a revolution in coin collecting. Collectors would
be able to see half cents, large cents, etc.,
all the way through the designs up to
1899. Talk about a collection of historical
significance and a learning experience for
our young collectors.
In closing I agree the Mint is in it for
profits, but I must say some of the coins
being put out are by far the most beautiful
this country has ever seen.
Jayne Shelby Hollywood, Md.
Just as much as:
Burnished silver Eagles;
“S” business strike and National Park
quarters;
Kennedy half dollars;
Coin and Currency/Chronicles Sets;
And every coin that has circulated long
enough to becomes its own commemorative, 2009 Lincoln cent and 1996-W
Roosevelt dime, and that’s just off the top..
Michael Jacobs Lake Zurich, Ill.
These should have remained a special
set item as they’ve been in the recent past,
but the Mint and its infinite wisdom just has
no idea when to temper things; they just go
ape crazy and make their proofs a gimmick.
Too much of a good thing isn’t always good.
Ken Kassen Shawnee, Kan.
Everything the Mint sells is just a gimmick to make more profits for the Mint.
16
I stopped buying from them when they
whacked out the proof silver Eagle program in 2009. They keep sending me junk
mail. Lots of wasted postage there.
Max Stucky Colorado Springs, Colo.
I think the silver 2014-W Kennedy half
dollar is a prime example of quality from
our Treasury. But if Congress had been
involved, then it would be a gimmick for
revenue enhancement. Just think of those
5-troy ounce silver plates called quarter
dollars, not the Treasury Department’s
idea of a coin, but some stupid Congress
people.
Wesley Ellis Portland Ore.
The most accurate and simple answer
to this question is a loud and simple yes.
John Tinney Volcano, Calif.
Yes, I think they are a total gimmick.
They are also unattractive. If you look
at them closely, you see the detail in the
design is very weak. Proofs are supposed
to be the best the Mint can do. These
aren’t.
William Eckberg Address withheld
I don’t know if I’d use the word gimmick, but yes they do mint them to generate more profits. Of course, this is true of
all collector issues and has been since they
the middle 1960s.
Gary Werner Address withheld
Yes they are. All those modern mint
coins are an uninformed numismatic ripoff. The Mint is selling them to people who believe that they will get rich.
Actually, it is a government scam.
Denny Froberg Carson City, Nev.
You Betcha! But they sure are nice!
Also, different finishes for coins are the
way of the future. Even finishes with crystals, enamels and other composites, etc.,
have become very common (and expensive) at various foreign mints. I wonder
will these fancy-dancy finished coins have
any numismatic or collector value in the
future? Probably not much, because anyone interested in these products are always
onto the next newfangled thing a week
later. So net-net, fun and beautiful to look
at, but little long-term value.
For investment and collector purposes
Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
that will sustain value, at this moment of
75-to-1 silver-to-gold ratio. Stick to the
basics of as low as you can get silver bullion government issues or generics, and
staple collector coins such as well-priced
Morgans, Peace, Walkers, Franklins, quarters, Mercs, etc.
For the Average Joe Collector/Investor I
would not recommend buying these numismatic coins at high premiums, even if they
are gorgeous and rare. Get the best quality
you can, at the lowest price (of course!).
Over the next decade or two there will be
a flood of high quality numismatic content
silver that the early Boomers are going to
dump before they die, and there will be a
significant supply and price decrease on
those MS-65 Morgans.
Robert Matitia Address withheld
Form this old-school point of view,
keep it as simple as possible, and let it
be. From the other point of view, limited
issues would be prudent. This will keep
values up on all products.
Gary Kess Berkel en Rodenrijs
Netherlands
I wish the Mint would just stop this!
Business strikes and regular proofs are
enough to keep most collectors happy.
More than this just makes collecting too
confusing.
Name withheld
It is, of course, a typical Mint gimmick
to milk the coin collector hobby for commemoratives of inconsequential subjects
and strike duplicates of only a minor finish difference (i.e., reverse proofs) – all at
unreasonable prices.
Instead of ripping us off for an extra
buck (more revenue) why not lobby, etc.,
and attempt to get authorization to save
money by substituting a one dollar coin
for the greenback and search extra hard
for a cheaper material for the cent blanks.
The use of coinage appears to be declining
and electronic payments, credit cards, etc.,
increasing.
If anything can be done by the government, it is without a doubt doing things
the most expensive and inefficient way
plus the least effective. Oh for the day
of the single Mint offering – the $2.10
proof set.

Chronicles/from Page 1
it gained attention once it became a rarity. I think the buzz for
the Truman set then helped the Ike set sales.”
Each of the 2015 Chronicles sets contain a reverse proof
Presidential dollar and silver Presidential medal. The big draw
for collectors is the reverse proof coins, a finish the Mint uses
sparingly and this is the first time it was applied to Presidential
dollars.
On eBay, the Truman set currently averages $229 per set,
over triple the initial sales price of $57.95. The Ike set brings in
around $165 per set.
What makes the Truman and Ike sets stand out is they have
low mintages of 17,000 units each. Both sets sold out at the
Mint in around 15 minutes after their release: Truman on June
30, Ike on Aug. 11.
Purchasers of the Truman set were also able to order up to
five sets per household, a policy concentrating more sets in the
hands of fewer buyers.
In response, the Mint reduced the Ike set household order
limit from five units to two. This change might be one reason
for a lower secondary market price for the Ike set.
The more affordable sets for 2015 are the Kennedy and
Johnson sets.
As of Nov. 4, the Kennedy set trades around $70 and the
Johnson set is at $75 to $80, little above the Mint’s issue price
of $57.95
Due to the Truman and Ike sellouts, the Mint increased production for the Kennedy set from 25,000 sets to 50,000 and the
Johnson set from 17,000 units to 25,000. Like the Ike set, the
household order limit remained at two units.
The Kennedy set went on sale Sept. 16 and remained available until Oct. 5, with returns sold occasionally afterwards.
The Johnson set took almost four hours to sell out when it
released Oct. 27.
The lack of a quick sellout and higher mintages for the
Kennedy and Johnson seems to have acted to lower the secondary market price. Both sets have markups that don’t provide
much room for profit to buyers after fees and shipping costs
are included.
For all four 2015 sets, small premiums are attached to
unopened boxes, due to their ability to receive PCGS First Strike
grading designations.
Crane said some of the interest in ungraded sets comes from
buyers looking to get PF-/MS-70 sets.
“The PF-/MS-69 coins and medals are common,” he said.
“The -70 grades are hard to come by. Getting a complete set of
-70s is even harder.”
For example, a PCGS graded PF-/MS-70 Ike set sold at an
eBay auction on Oct. 25 for $1,430 after 30 bids.
At the PCGS coin census as of Nov. 4, just 56 Ike reverse
proof dollars of 1,182 graded received a PR-70 grade. Only 187
Ike medals out of 1,039 seen made MS-70.
Meanwhile, a certified PF-/MS-69 Chronicles set is so easy
to come by, buyers on eBay tend to pay at or below the price of
an ungraded set for graded -69 sets.

Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
Check out the grading census at PCGS, http://www.pcgs.
com/pop/, and NGC, http://www.ngccoin.com/coin-census/us/,
for more grading information.
Crane said he believes the interest in Chronicles sets will last
for some time.
“I think some people got into the series with the Kennedy set
and are tracking backwards to get the other sets,” he said. “This
is a unique series for the collector.”
Collector interest in previous Chronicles sets has risen with
the 2015 set releases.
Prices on eBay have risen for the 2005 John Marshall, the
2006 Benjamin Franklin, the 2009 Abraham Lincoln and the
2013 Theodore Roosevelt Chronicles sets.
The 2014 Franklin D. Roosevelt Chronicles set went off sale
at the Mint in early November, with sales reports showing an
increase in purchases as the 2015 Chronicles sets released.
Buyers will now have to wait until 2016 when the Ronald
Reagan Coin and Chronicles set goes on sale.
On June 4, Tom Jurkowsky, director of the Mint’s office of
corporate communications, confirmed the set would contain a
reverse proof Reagan Presidential dollar.
He also stated the Mint would not produce Chronicles sets
for Presidents Ford and Nixon.
If interest in Coin and Chronicles sets remains high into
2016, the Reagan set could take off just like the Truman and Ike
sets – unless the Mint sets an unrealistically high mintage figure.

Grading changes over time puzzling
■ You hear about the new grading
system and what it did to the old grades that
were used when I was a young collector.
Is there any particular cut-off point before
which a coin grade is in doubt, or doesn’t
match current grading standards?
One source that I checked on this
indicates that March 1986 was the watershed
point for the old and new numerical grading
systems, so in theory at least, any coin
bought and graded (by almost anyone) prior
to that would be considered old grading, and
any coin graded since then would fall under
the new system. However, it is not that clear
cut, as grading standards established in 1986
have been constantly changing in the three
decades that have followed.
■ Supposedly there was an ancient
Egyptian coin that the Susan Anthony
dollar design was copied from. Any truth
to the story?
The U.S. Mint says that designer Frank
Gasparro was unaware of the Egyptian coin,
an 80 drachmae struck at Alexandria during
the reign of Cleopatra. The rare coin shows
a profile quite similar to the Anthony bust,
and by coincidence also has an eagle on
the reverse, but the entire similarity can be
considered coincidental rather than a case
of deliberately copying the design. As was
pointed out during the controversy over
the drummer reverse of the Bicentennial
quarter, there are only so many things
that can be done with a design on a coin,
many of which may make it look similar to
something else.
■ Is it true that some fake coins are actually
copies made in Hollywood for movies?
Big motion picture studios never use
genuine coins or paper money in pictures
because of possible legal problems with
the government. Instead the studio prop
departments make or obtain large quantities
of both coins and paper money when they
are needed that can then make their way
to the public. These are not likely to fool
numismatists, but perhaps some have found
their way into the hands of unsuspecting
novice collectors.
■ Why is the quarter sometimes
considered to be a symbol of bad luck?
This superstition dates back to the
early years of our country when the first
26
quarters were issued. Somebody took note
of the 13 stars and the fact that there were
13 letters in the words “quarter dollar.”
With that irrefutable evidence, the coin
was labeled as unlucky, so as a result
few would carry one as a pocket piece.
Nowadays quarters are more likely to be
the symbol of cheapness that draws laughs
on TV sitcoms.
■ With renewed interest in edge lettering
on U.S. dollar coins, just when did they first
start putting edge lettering on any coins?
The first efforts at edge lettering coins
dates back to 1555 by Aubin Olivier at the
Paris Mint. However it was impractical
for large quantities of coins so its use was
limited to patterns and special pieces such
as pieforts, or double thickness pieces. One
source mentions an edge inscription on
a Byzantine coin weight of the Emperor
Justinian I (A.D. 527-565) so the idea wasn’t
new even in 1555.
■ Please explain the difference between
die stage and die state.
Those involved with minting varieties
and errors have used die stages for many
years to describe progressions. They are
instances where a series of die breaks or
die cracks occur, lengthen or enlarge during
the life of the die. Each new change in the
die is classed as a stage. A die state used in
describing die life covers the wear on the
die surface and the consequent appearance
of the coin surface, passing from very early
to early, to mid, to late to very late states. In
general, the earlier the die state, the more
detail is visible on the coin’s surface.
■ I have a “Greenpeace” dollar dated
1979 with two sperm whales on one side.
What country issued this coin?
The pieces were privately issued tokens,
rather than coins, apparently from a coin
dealer in Vancouver, Canada. They were
part of a five-piece set that included the harp
seal, bald eagle, timber wolf and sisiuti,
which sold for $5 in nickel and $69.50 in
sterling silver.
■ Was Victor D. Brenner ever a member
of the American Numismatic Association?
Brenner was a member of the American
Numismatic Association during the period
when he designed the Lincoln cent of 1909,
Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
the design that continues in use. He was
member number 841 of the ANA, retaining
his membership from 1906 through 1912.
■ I have a painting that I believe is
the original of Norman Rockwell’s “The
Collector.” Do you have any idea of its value?
I doubt that your picture is the original.
It was hanging at the Franklin Mint, a
private firm in Franklin Center, Pa., when
reproductions were sold by the firm back
in the 1970s, done on artist’s canvas,
to members of their society. Since this
was a relatively limited edition, the copy
undoubtedly has some value, but the amount
would have to be determined by an art
expert. One of these is hanging in the
Numismatic News office.
■ What is the difference in the melting
point between gold and nickel?
One of the reasons why nickel is hard to
handle is that it takes a lot of heat to melt it.
The melting point is given as 1,452 degrees
Celsius or 2,645 degrees Fahrenheit. For
gold, the melting point is 1,062 degrees
Celsius, or “only” 1,944 degrees Fahrenheit. A not too well known fact is that by
alloying other metals with the metal to be
melted, the melting temperature can be
reduced. 22-karat gold, for example, melts
at 951 degrees C (1,743 degrees F) which is
about the same as silver – 960 degrees C or
1,760 degrees F.
■ What was the connection between
George Washington’ s death and the striking
of the 1900 Lafayette commemorative
dollar?
The first Lafayette dollar was struck at
exactly 11:15 a.m. on Dec. 14, 1899. This
ceremony was deliberately scheduled to
mark the 100th anniversary of the death
of our first President on Dec. 14, 1799, at
Mount Vernon. Critics of the piece have
suggested that if the coin had indicated that
anniversary it might have had more appeal
to the public.
■ Was the Smithsonian Institution
the first museum exhibiting coins in
Washington, D.C.?

GOLD BULLION MARKET VALUES
Ownership period gets shorter for coins in sales
By Richard Giedroyc
Be prepared for a lot of movement,
hopefully upward, on higher value coins.
Several important auctions are on the
horizon. How many of the coins will net
their consignor a profit, and how many
of them will sell for less than what they
were purchased for by the consignor is
the real question. In general many coins
now being consigned to auctions have
been held by their current owners for
significantly shorter periods of time than
were desirable coins in the past. There
are noticeably fewer old-time collections
Key U.S. Type Coins
being liquidated.
Most relatively common collector
coins, especially those influenced heavily
by the spot price of gold and silver, continue to trade in a narrow range. The common coins in uncommonly nice higher
grades appear to be holding steady, while
the scarce-to-rare coins are showing some
upward movement.
Silver dollar values remain mixed.
Dealers are indicating noticeable increases in retail sales across the board, not
necessarily centering on any particular
area. The reason for this bounce isn’t
fully clear. It is possible this could be an

More San Martin medals for book
While at the museum I noticed this bust, left, of San Martin in the lobby.
After taking the photo of the bust I turned around to shoot this photo of the
entrance and caught my friend, Carlos Graziadio coming toward me.
By Bill Tuttle
This week started off with a visit to the
Museo del Antiguo Recinto del Congreso
Nacional with Carlos Graziadio. The
museum is on the site of the National
Congress from 1864 to 1905 when it
moved to its present location. The building
was acquired by Banco Hipotecaro in 1942
and razed and replaced with the current
36
structure. As part of the
acquisition the original
Session Hall was to be
retained within the new
building, this is now the
museum. The primary
purpose of the visit was
to look over the museum’s collection of San
Martin medals. Those on display were all
ones that are in my collection and I do not
know if they have others.
The next day was a bit better. I was
finally able to access the Museo Mitre
collection and found several medals not
in my collection that I photographed
for inclusion in my forthcoming book.
Unfortunately none of the gold medals
listed in Numismatica Sanmartiniana sur-
Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
faced.
The rest of the week included the weekly CNBA meeting and a meeting with a
potential publisher before heading off on
Saturday to San Nicolas. After checking
in at my hotel I took a taxi to the home
of Rodolfo Bellomo. Rodolfo and I spent
about four hours going through his collection and found 38 medals to photograph.
Between us we have two of the seven large
medals issued in 1950 for the monument
that was originally in Recoleta.
Before leaving on Sunday I attended
the weekly meeting of the Instituto de
Numismatica e Historia de San Nicolas de
los Arroyos. It was a very small meeting,
only four of us, held at Senor de Cara’s

This medal was purchased about seven years ago but somehow I overlooked this location on
earlier trips. The obverse has a bust of San Martin, three quarters to the right, dividing 1778 –
1850. GRAL. DON JOSE SAN MARTIN is above on the perimeter. On the reverse: MUNICIPLIDAD
DE | ALMAFUERTE | INAUGURACION | DEL BUSTO | AL LIBERTADOR | 17-AGOSTO-1977. There are
no attributions. The weight is 9.8 gram and the diameter 31 mm.

house that is right around the corner from
the hotel. After the meeting adjourned
Rodolfo and I shared a taxi that dropped
him off on the way to the bus terminal.
After resting up for a day I caught
an overnight bus to Rio Cuarto. I had
photographed the monument there several years ago but wanted better photos.
Unfortunately the bus arrived late and I did
not have time to go to the monument and
still make my connection to Almafuerte. As
it was still dark I might not have improved
over what I have.
Upon arriving in Almafuerte I immediately purchased a bus ticket to Santiago
del Estero. I asked the ticket agent the
whereabouts of the San Martin monument
but she didn’t know. There was a remise
counter nearby so I next asked there and
found that the monument was only about a
block and a half down the street. About 30
minutes later I was back at the terminal for
a bite to eat in the restaurant. Unfortunately
my bus was almost an hour late in arriving.
My bad luck continued. None of the
time delay was made up possibly due to
a change of equipment in Cordoba, so I
arrived in Santiago del Estero after dark.
I asked for directions to the San Martin
monument and was given directions to the
main plaza. This was a well-lit plaza with
a lot of people moving about. However
One of the two inaugural medals was in last month’s column. Here is the other one. On the obverse
is the monument, a mounted San Martin atop a columnar base. At each side of the base, a lion. On
the perimeter: INAUGURACIÓN DEL MONUMENTO. Below: 24 SETIEMBRE |1911. To the right of the
base, C.Y AF. ROSSI. The reverse has an ornate scroll with the Arms of the Province of Santiago del
Estero and the legend, EL PUEBLO | DE | SANTIAGO DEL ESTERO | AL | GENERAL | DN JOSÉ DE SAN
MARTIN. At the bottom: C.Y AF. ROSSI. It is attributed as Burzio 309a and MFM 78.2.2. It weighs
76.48 gram with a diameter of 56.70 mm. The composition is silver plated bronze.

Unfortunately the light is not always favorable.
This is probably the least attractive San Martin
monument that I have seen, looks like a head
on a pair of bowed legs.
the monument was not of San Martin but
Belgrano. Fortunately the first person I
asked gave me the right directions, about
six blocks away. This plaza was not as well
lit and I could not get the flash to work on
my new camera. I debated staying overnight but decided to catch the overnight
bus to Santa Fe. Looking back I should
have taken a later bus from Rio Cuarto and
stayed overnight in Santiago del Estero.
This is the best photo of those taken in Santiago
del Estero. Photoshop helped somewhat.

Tiny crown on head of the empire
By Fred Glueckstein
At the age of 18, Victoria inherited the
throne and reigned as queen of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
from June 20, 1837, to Jan. 22, 1901.
Queen Elizabeth II in September of this
year surpassed this longevity record for a
reigning monarch.
In accordance with the Royal Mint’s
practice, British coinage was changed in
1837 to portray the new queen. During
Victoria’s reign four main portraits appeared
on the obverse of the queen’s coinage.
Previously, the first two articles in the series
covered the first and second designs, which
are commonly referred to as the Young
Head (1838-1887) and Godless or Gothic
(1847-1887).
This article discusses the third of Queen
Victoria’s coinage portraits that marked the
50th anniversary of her accession to the
throne, which was celebrated as the Golden
Jubilee on June 20-21, 1887. In anticipation of the event, the medalist and sculptor
Joseph Edgar Boehm (1834-1890) designed
and prepared the model for the coinage.
Joseph Edgar Boehm (originally Böhm)
was born in Vienna of Hungarian parents.
His father, Joseph Daniel Böhm, was director of the imperial mint in Vienna. After
studying in Italy and Paris, young Boehm
worked as a medalist in Vienna. In 1856, he
was awarded the Austrian Imperial Prize for
Sculpture, which began his distinguished
career. After further study in England,
Boehm was successful as an exhibitor at the
1862 International Exhibition and devoted
more time to portrait busts and statuettes,
chiefly equestrian.
In 1862, Boehm moved to England and
became a British subject in 1865. In 1869,
he created a huge statue of Queen Victoria
in marble for Windsor Castle. Boehm then
produced the monument of the Duke of
Kent in St. George’s chapel. His work was
highly favored by the queen’s court.
Following other works, Boehm became
an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1878
and elected to the Royal Academy in 1882.
Boehm was also best known for the statue
of the Duke of Wellington at Hyde Park
Corner. His body of work was substantial.
Boehm exhibited 123 works at the Royal
Academy from 1862 to his death in 1890.
Boehm’s coin design of Queen Victoria
commemorating the Golden Jubilee was
adopted. The obverse of the coin displayed
Victoria’s Jubilee portrait. As expected it

was a more mature face than earlier portraits. She faces left and wears a small
diamond crown atop an ornate lace widow’s veil. The coronet was made of silver
and contained 1,187 diamonds. It was prepared for Victoria in 1870 as a lighter and
more comfortable substitute for the heavy
Imperial State Crown.
Victoria’s dress is richly decorated with
a large ruffle. The Order of the Thistle and
the First Class Badge of the Royal Order of
Victoria and Albert was pinned on her left
shoulder.
The inscription on the coin read:
VICTORIA D: G: BRITT: REG: F: D: The
engraver’s initials J.E.B. appear raised on
the truncation of the shoulder. The reverse
featured Benedetto Pistrucci’s superb design
of St. George on horseback slaying the
dragon, first used on gold sovereigns of
George III in 1817. There is no legend
on the reverse, apart from the date in the
exergue. The edge is milled (reeded).
Boehm’s portrait of Victoria was widely
criticized. Many contemporary numisma-
Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
tists and coin collectors were unimpressed
with the design. They felt that the tiny
crown was perched precariously on top
of her head and looked rather ridiculous.
They also disliked the unpleasant look on
Victoria’s face.
In 1887, the majority of Jubilee coins
were issued in silver crown size (the crown
was equal in value to 5 shillings), because
the size of the coin allowed more detail.
In addition to the crown, other silver coins
minted were the halfcrown, shilling, sixpence, groat, and 1888 Maundy Set. Gold
Jubilee coins minted in 1887 were 5 pounds
2 pounds and sovereign. The half sovereign
had a coat of arms instead of St. George.
Joseph Edgar Boehm’s portrait of Queen
Victoria was used until the Old Head portrait was introduced in 1893. Undoubtedly,
the Golden Jubilee coins were a most interesting addition to the coinage of Queen
Victoria from a 21st century perspective.
Note: The final coinage of Queen
Victoria, Old Head Coinage 1893-1901,
will be the fourth and final article. X

Visiting two PA coal mining towns
By Mark Hotz
While in southeast and south-central
Pennsylvania, I thought I would take the
opportunity to revisit a couple cool old
towns that I wrote about a decade ago.
This month, we will visit two old and
historic coal towns, both of which reflect
the current fate of many small coal communities across the nation.
Cairnbrook, Pa., is just north of Central
City in central Somerset County, a subdivision in the southeastern part of the state
abutting on the Maryland line and stretching north to encompass a wide area south
of Johnstown. Somerset County (county
seat: Somerset) is a wide expanse of
wooded hills and rolling countryside, with
many coal-bearing mountainous areas.
Coal was discovered in the 19th century
along Shade Creek and its tributaries and
by the turn of the century several Western
Pennsylvania mining outfits had established mines in the area.
In 1912, the S.E. Dickey & Co. of
Johnstown purchased the Jacob McGregor
farm and laid out the community of
Cairnbrook for Loyal Hanna Coal & Coke
Co. Between 1912 and 1920, the company
constructed about 200 houses, commercial and social buildings, and a modern drift entry mine with accompanying
extractive buildings and structures.
Cairnbrook was a true company town.
Development was enhanced by the extension of the Pennsylvania Railroad from
Windber to Cairnbrook and Central City
between 1914 and 1920. World War I
fueled major expansion of the mines.
Employment and population in the
area declined slightly from the Great
Depression, but production boomed
again during World War II and then again
declined in the 1950s when the mines
began to close. In 1995, the entire community was recognized as a National
Historic District.
The First National Bank of Cairnbrook,
charter 10704, was chartered at the beginning of 1915, shortly after the establishment of the town, and served its residents,
virtually all of whom were employed by
Loyal Hanna Coal in some facet or another. This was a small bank, with a total
issue of just $343,000 in 17 years of operHotz/Page 44

This large-size Series of 1902 $20 note from the author’s collection was issued by the First National
Bank of Cairnbrook, Pa. All notes from this small mining community are scarce.

Here is the old First National Bank of Cairnbrook as it appears in the town today. It has been
refurbished and is used for apartments.

ations. It was a victim of the Depression,
and was closed by the receiver in 1932.
Its notes are very scarce indeed; it only
issued 5,600 sheets of large notes and
835 sheets of small-size notes. The only
denominations circulated were $10 and
$20, and of these, a mere two large size
and four small are recorded in the most
current Kelly census. I am pleased to
include photos of both large- and smallsize notes from this bank, the large note
from my own collection.
I exited the Pennsylvania Turnpike at
Bedford, and headed west on U.S. 30
before turning north on State 160 to
Cairnbrook. The town, though boasting
a brand new elementary school it shares
with Central City, was very much a shadow of its former self. It was fairly difficult
to discern the old business district, as few
commercial-style buildings were standing. Most of the company residences were
well preserved, however.
I finally located what I thought was the
bank building at the head of a residential
street. It was a substantial two-story structure with two distinct front entrances – the
building had been converted to apartments and one sported a “For Rent” sign.
However, I recalled another substantiallooking building I had passed on the way
into town. It was next to the small but
modern post office. I cruised down there
for another look. It was cold and blustery.
At that moment, an elderly man stopped
by to pick up his mail.
I hastened over. “Excuse me,” I called.
“But have you lived around these parts
long?” He responded in the affirmative.
“I am interested in old national banks,”
I continued, “and am trying to figure out
which building was the First National
Bank of Cairnbrook. I am thinking either
this one (pointing next door) or the one I
saw at the top of the hill that is an apartment building now.” He eyed me rather
incredulously, as if it was too hard to
imagine someone coming to Cairnbrook
on such a windy day to look for an old
bank. “No,” he muttered, “the old bank
was the building up on the hill that you
saw. Hasn’t been a bank for ages, though.”
I have attached a photo of the old bank
building. At least it has been put to good
use and is not lying derelict (though I
dare say I might have preferred that). The
area around Cairnbrook is littered with
old dilapidated mine buildings, including
mine company stores, several in ruins.

Here is a view of the First National Bank of Dawson, Pa. as it appears today. The turrets and stone
masonry are architectural gems.
Just down the road from Cairnbrook,
I visited historic Hooversville, which we
visited last month. So, to finish off this
month, I will include picturesque Dawson,
Pa., closer to Pittsburgh, which I visited
on the way back.
Dawson is about 40 miles southeast of Pittsburgh in Fayette County,
about halfway between Perryopolis and
Connellsville. This is deep coal country,
and virtually all of the small towns that
dot the rural byways owe their existence
to coal mining. Dawson, founded in 1872,
was no exception, though it also served as
a rail junction.
The First National Bank of Dawson,
charter 5742, opened in 1891 and survived the National Currency era. It was a
fairly large issuer given its remote location, with a total issue of $1.1 million
over approximately 40 years. Some years
ago, I had a $10 Brown Back note on the
bank – the president was John F. Cochran
and the late SPMC President Bob Cochran
was looking for notes with that signature.
I sold mine to him. When I got around to
visiting Dawson and seeing its fantastic
bank building, I regretted it.
Dawson sits just off the Youghiogheny
River and is accessed from State Route
819, a lumbering two-lane road that heads
north from Vanderbilt. It wasn’t all that
easy getting into Dawson, but once I
arrived, it was well worth the visit. Just
after crossing over the river, the road
enters the town and immediately crosses
railroad tracks. These tracks pass directly
in front of the main business district, with
the road aptly named Railroad Avenue. It
struck me as odd that the tracks were so
close to the buildings, but there did not
seem to be another place for them.

The author spotted this handmade sign in the old bank building window.
Hotz/from Page 44
I turned down Railroad Avenue looking
for the bank, and was soon greeted with
the sight of a magnificent 2½-story turreted structure on the corner of Railroad
Avenue and Main Street. Although the
building appeared vacant, it was well
preserved and its fancy stone archway
entrance made it clear that this was the
First National Bank. The brick building
was varnished a lavender-red, and yellow stone accoutrements surmounted the
many windows. The building was too
large to have been just a bank, but must
have also housed other businesses and
many offices on its upper floors. You can
see for yourself how attractive this build-
Here is the Cochran House Bed & Breakfast, located just adjacent to the bank on Railroad Avenue.
This beautiful structure was the home of John Cochran, the president of the First National Bank.

Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015
This is a side view of the First National Bank
of Dawson. Note the train passing through
town at the left of the photo.
ing is from the accompanying photo.
I pulled north of the building to park,
and found that I had stopped in front of a
magnificent Victorian residence boasting
several turrets and spires. Its gingerbreadpaneled façade was accented with blue. It
had a sign on the door that read “Cochran
House B&B.” I was amazed. Here was the
wonderfully preserved home of the bank
president, who lived directly across Main
Street from his bank. It was, though, an
odd location for a fancy residence. While
it was convenient to the bank, the house
faced directly on the railroad tracks.
To make my visit even more poignant,
as I was taking my photos I felt a rumbling
and heard a train whistle in the near distance.
As I stood in front of the Cochran House, a
large freight came rumbling through town.
I could only imagine how the same scene
must have played out when the bank was in
full operation and the town bustling.
Today, Dawson snoozes. The
Youghiogheny River, however, is filled
in summer months with hordes of white
water enthusiasts who come to run the
rapids. Who knows, maybe one day
Dawson will be renewed. Its lovely buildings and historic ambience would make a
fine tourist destination.

Designs for coins that will honor Ronald
Reagan, the United States’ 40th president,

Reagan’s portrait will appear on the 2016

St. Paul, Minn., said that collectors enjoy the
challenge of finding PO-1 coins.
“I tell people to try collecting it yourself,”
he said. “If you think it’s so easy, you try it.
Michael Hoyman’s PCGS PO-1 1878 eight tail feathers
Morgan dollar from his End of the Trail VII Collection.
It’s really difficult to find PO-1 coins.”
Not just any well-worn coin can grade
PO-1, he said.

Clinic/from Page 26
museum that opened in 1836. John Varden
put some 500 pieces on display in that year.
Varden’s holdings, plus coins belonging to the
Columbian Institute for the Promotion of the
Arts and Sciences (Chartered by Congress
in 1818) were taken over by the National
Institute for the Promotion of Science in
1840. The Institute was formed to administer
the bequest used to found the Smithsonian.
Varden sold his collection to the Institute
for $1,500 and went to work for them as an
assistant for $1.50 a day.
■ I found a product that is supposed to
remove humidity from the air by absorbing
it with calcium chloride. Is this safe to use
around coins?
Examination of the packaging of the
product didn’t show that it was useful around
coins or other collectibles. I don’t know
enough about the product to make a specific
recommendation, but I am concerned about
the calcium chloride. The directions indicate
that the liquid is to be poured off as it
accumulates. If the liquid spills, it would have
the same effect as pouring salt water on your
coins. The one product that I do recommend
as a drying agent is silica gel, which is inert
and does not contain any chemicals that
might be potentially harmful in some way to
coins or other collectibles.
■ Why are prices so relatively high on the
1982-1983 clad quarters? They struck them
by the hundreds of millions.
High mintages, but the principal reason for
the high prices for the 1982 and 1983 quarters
is that there were no mint sets that year and
nobody bothered to save them in roll or bag
quantities. When it came time to fill orders,
dealers discovered that literally nobody had
any quantities of uncirculated pieces.

ment education programs, in 1993 he
joined Ponterio & Associates auction
house, where he wrote essays for catalogs
and cataloged an almost unlimited range
of coins, paper money, medals, tokens,
and awards and decorations. He was
relied upon heavily for ancient, medieval,
Islamic, Indian and Asian material.
Friends recalled that he seemed always
to be in a jovial mood. He retired in 2009.
Mr. Westdal’s contributions to the
Standard Catalogs of both coins and paper
money were acknowledged in those volumes for many years, and he is still cited in
some of the latest editions. He was largely responsible for the Iceland section of
Standard Catalog of World Paper Money.
In 1975 he founded the Ancient
Numismatic Society of San Diego and
remained an active member until his illness. He was a long-term member the
International Bank Note Society and
founded its Southern California Chapter
in 2008.
Mr. Westdal’s personal numismatic
interests included Byzantine coins, especially unusual denominations, and the
CPMX/from Page 1
the Professional Preview from 2 to 6 p.m.
Admission is $50.
The public may attend Friday and Saturday,
March 18-19, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and
Sunday, March 20, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
for a $5 admission that covers all both days.
Admission on Sunday is free, but there is
likely to be a limited number of dealers on the
bourse floor.
CICF will be held April 14-17, 2016, at
the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center
in Rosemont, Ill. The bourse will be located
in Hall B, which is directly off the main
entrance lobby.
Heritage Auctions will conduct the official auction at the 41st annual Chicago
International Coin Fair.
CICF opens Thursday, April 14, with
dealer setup from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The
Professional Preview will be held from 2 to 6
p.m. April 14. The entry fee is $50.
The public may attend Friday and

medals and decorations of church orders.
He and his wife traveled the world
widely, including a visit to Iceland in 1999,
where he established a valuable contact
with a bank employee who was a collector,
who continued to correspond with him to
assist him with his research. He was proud
of his Icelandic heritage and was writing a
book on Icelandic paper money when he
became ill. He was also very interested in
books about the history behind the coins.
Some of his interest in Chinese material
was sparked by a trip to western China.
The breadth of Mr. Westdal’s interests is
shown by this list of his publications:
Dictionary of Roman Coin Inscriptions,
Sanford Durst, 1982.
(Earlier
editions
were
published under the title A Guidebook
for the Identification of Roman Coin
Inscriptions, 1971, 1973, 1977.)
A Cross-reference Index to V.I. Petrov’s
Catalog des Monnaies Russes, self-published, 1980.
“The Badges of the Equestrian Order of
the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem” Journal
of the Orders and Medals Society of
America, 1998. http://www.omsa.org/files/
