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- ® www.numismaticnews.com EDITOR David C.

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. LETTERS 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. And look at the 2016 silver Australia Kangaroo. A beautiful design.

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.

I have despaired for years seeing her ravishing beautty on the platinum coins while our poor circulation coins stay as they are, forlorn and forgotten.

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 www.numismaticnews.com November 24, 2015 7 CALL TODA AY Y F OR F FR REE 32 P PA AGE CA ATTALLO OG! 1-800 0-5 -599-0278 SHOP S HOP O ONLINE NLLIN N NE E@W WWW.

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. Why doesn’t the Citizens Coinage Viewpoint/from Page 7 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. Bob Olekson Parma, Ohio 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.

Harper To read more from Dave Harper’s blog go to numismaticnews.net/buzz 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 Buzz/Page 16 STEINBERG’S, INC.

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.

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. 22 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.? The Smithsonian was preceded by a Clinic/Page 54 www.numismaticnews.com / November 24, 2015 27 ▲ Coin Market at a glance PART A-1 Brought to you by NumisMaster.com 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 Date Fair2 AG3 1869/9 1877 1908S 1909S Lincoln Cents KM#132 1909S 1909S VDB 1914D 1922 No D Die 2 Strong Rev 1922 No D Die 3 Weak Rev 1931S 1955/1955 1972/1972 1983/1983 1984/1984 1995/1995 Liberty Nickels KM#112 1885 1886 1912S Buffalo Nickels KM#134 1913S Ty'2 1914D 1916/16 1918/17D 1921S 1926S 1931S 1937D 3 Leg Jefferson Nickels KM#192a/A192 1939D 1943/2 1950D Barber Dimes KM#113 1892S 1893/2 1894O 1895 1895O 1896O 1896S 1897O 1901S 1913S Mercury Dimes KM#140 1916D 1921 1921D 1926S 1942/41 1942/1D Barber Quarters KM#114 1896S 1901S 1913S Standing Lib Qtrs KM#141/145 1916 1918/17S 1921 1923S Washington Qtrs KM#164 1932D 1932S $40 $270 $30 $295 $40 $390 $75 — $125 $25 — — — — — $135 $95 $45 $135 $18 $650 — $22 $5 $7 $175 — — — $23 $50 $16 $29 $165 $32 $33 $25 $28 $10 $200 — — — — — $310 $2,100 $590 $925 — — — $35 $33 $100 $350 $48 $390 $45 $515 $125 380 165 $40 — — — — — $310 $140 $85 $205 $39 $1,790 $520 $36 $10 $9 $305 — — — $35 $70 $31 $48 $240 $50 $53 $39 $42 $16 $400 $23 $25 $7 $280 $200 $450 $3,125 $1,000 $1,650 — — — $55 $55 Indian Cents KM#90a 28 Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015 Good4 $125 $460 $65 $370 $60 $610 $145 475 300 $55 — — — — — $360 $235 $120 $275 $77 $3,500 $900 $50 $17 $14 $415 $4.0 $35 $7 $53 $115 $60 $70 $310 $70 $68 $55 $65 $27 $625 $40 $50 $10 $365 $340 $600 $4,500 $1,300 $2,100 $1,180 $130 $200 $80 $80 indication investors as well as collectors may be paying more attention to the coin market.

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.

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. Dool/from Page 36 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. 38 Numismatic News EXPRESS / November 24, 2015 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.

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 40 To celebrate 50 years on the throne, the Jubilee portrait of Queen Victoria was introduced in 1887. Images ©www.chards.co.uk. 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 WHO AM I?

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 42 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. A scarce small-size note issued by the First National Bank of Cairnbrook. 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.

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. 44 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.

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. 46 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.

Reagan’s portrait will appear on the 2016 Presidential $1 coin. CCAC Chairman Gary Marks said the committee voted 7 to 2 with one abstention to support design No. 1, a forward facing portrait of a smiling Reagan. The committee had eight designs to choose from. There were more design candidates for the Twain/Page 62 Poor-1 coins not easy By Connor Falk Poor-1 (PO-1) is the lowest grade a coin can be, where the coin is little more than a metal disk. So why are collectors going after these badly worn coins? Greg Allen, owner of Greg Allen Coins, 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. Poor/Page 36 CPMX beats weather By Robert R.

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.
