Will the inclusion
of a reverse proof
Presidential dollar
boost sales of the
2015 Coin and
Chronicles Sets?
The 2014 Roosevelt
set shown here has
just a standard proof
Presidential dollar.
Mint plans reverse proof $1s
The very first reverse proof Presidential
dollar coin will be the centerpiece of the
Harry S. Truman Coin and Chronicles Set
that will go on sale June 30.
But rather than price this desirable innovation as aggressively as you might expect,
the U.S. Mint is actually holding the issue
price to the same $57.95 figure applied to
the Franklin Delano Roosevelt set, which
includes just an ordinary proof dollar.
And get this: the mintage of the new

goal of Don Kagin
Set almost a sellout
It’s not a sellout yet, but sales in the
first four days of the March of Dimes
Special Silver Set reached 66,109.
Maximum mintage is just 75,000.
Purchasing this three-coin set is the
only way collectors can acquire the 2015MOD/Page 20
Putting the American
Numismatic Association
on a sound fiscal basis
is a goal of Donald H.
Kagin, a candidate for
a seat on the American
Numismatic Association
Don Kagin
board of governors in
this year’s election.
“We can achieve financial stability
and growth while robustly furthering our
educational mission, including expanding ‘Coins in the Classroom,’ which I
cofounded and instructs teachers how to
use numismatics in their curriculum. We
must update ANA’s delivery system of
numismatic educational opportunities,”
said the Tiburon, Calif. dealer and former
ANA governor.

Finest known VAM-44A was identified and then graded MS-61 by ICG.
Rare VAM finest known
A very rare variety of the 1878
Philadelphia Morgan dollar was certified recently by ICG Grading Service of
Tampa, Fla.
The coin is an example of VAM44A an 1878 coin with the 7 over 8 tail
feather reverse. This particular die pair
features tripled edges of the leaves and
blossoms on Liberty’s head plus clash
marks. On the obverse there is a faint
clashed “n” by Liberty’s throat. Evidence
of the designer’s initial “M” shows in
the field above the “d” of “God” on the
reverse. This reverse die also features
three extra feather tips protruding below
the normal 7 tail feathers plus doubled
legs on the eagle.
The coin was submitted to ICG at the
recent Baltimore Rare Coin and Currency
Expo. It was attributed as VAM-44A by
ICG Senior Grader Randy Campbell,
a silver dollar specialist and a former
president of the National Silver Dollar
Roundtable. It was certified MS-61 by
the ICG graders. According to Campbell,
“fewer than five examples of this variety
are known to me. This is the first Mint
State example of the 44A I’ve ever seen.”
Reverse proofs shake up set
By Connor Falk
Introduction of the first reverse proof
Presidential dollars could shake up the
market, or be just more Mint products
inundating collectors.
Forecasts of what they might become
depend on whom you talk to.
Such special strikes always get collectors talking. The United States Mint
will soon give them four more reasons to
continue that habit: the first ever reverse
proof Presidential dollars will be featured
in the four 2015 Presidential Coin and
Chronicles sets.
It’s not just the appearance of reverse
proofs that has collectors interested but
also low mintages: a 17,000 limit for each
set except for the Kennedy one at 25,000.
The first release is the Truman set which
begins sales June 30 and is priced at $57.95.

Don’t forget the First Spouse gold
Gold is such a perverse metal for collectors. There seems to be little regular
interest in it, which is logical considering
how expensive it is compared to the budgets of average collectors.
But throw in a gimmick of some kind
and we collectors fall all over ourselves
to buy numismatic objects made of gold.
Last year the first ever cupped coins
saw the gold Baseball Hall of Fame $5
sell out its full 50,000 mintage and then
trade for multiples of issue price on the
secondary market.
The gold proof Kennedy coin tugged
on the heart strings of all of us who can
recall where we were and what we were
doing Nov. 22, 1963, when President
Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas.
Sales of that coin have gone over the
72,000 mark.
It takes a stretch of the average collector budget to reach for these gold coins.
But for these two issues that stretching of
budgets was not only done willingly, but
also enthusiastically.
Class of
’63
David C. Harper
Another way of getting at least some
collectors to trade their hard earned dollars for gold is to tell them that the very
currency they are actively earning and
spending is going to die like the mark did
in Weimar, Germany in 1923. These stories are like a numismatic rite of passage
that surface every time a serious problem
develops. The problems get solved, the
dollar goes on, but the stories never do
more than go into temporary hiding.
It would be better if collectors would
just watch a slasher movie when they
want to be frightened. It is much cheaper
and is over in a couple of hours.
When gold is simply presented as
respectable, either as an inflation hedge,
or as a collectible, you can hear the crickets chirping.
One of the respectable ways of col-
lecting gold is in the form of First Spouse
half-ounce gold coins.
Sales have been heading straight down
since the program began in 2007. There
are perfectly good reasons for it. To collect the whole set from beginning to end
will cost around $50,000 or $60,000. Few
can afford it.
Current issue prices of $770 for the
uncirculated and $790 for the proof just
seem expensive without that extra gimmick to make us fall in love with these
gold coins.
Might I suggest taking a look at the
mintages as a substitute for a gimmick?
Eleanor Roosevelt sold out at 1,886 uncirculated pieces and 2,377 proofs. Do these
figures not make you think that there
might be some upside potential because
of ongoing collector interest in the coins?
The Bess Truman running tally is
1,025 uncirculated and 1,450 proofs.
If a dealer will sell you one of the nearly 37,000 Martha Washingtons for gold
value, put it away – to ward off calamity.

No advantage to a 100point grading scale

not be better than the existing 70-point
scale for a number of reasons. Rather than
reiterate those reasons I will just issue a
challenge.
I challenge anyone to actually construct a
100-point grading scale. Once you’ve done
that, lay it side-by-side with the 70-point
scale, then try to spot where the 100-point
scale is better. You won’t find it. The simple
fact is a 100-point scale is not better.
Converting to a 100-point scale would
actually be a mistake, in my opinion,
because it would be misleading. It would
give the false impression that grading is
based on percent of wear.
Our grading system is not strictly based
on wear percentage (there is a loose correlation, but a VF-20 is not exactly twice as
worn as an EF-40, and a VF-30 is not twice
as worn as an MS-60).
Converting to a 100-point grading scale
would give the illusion of improved accuracy without actually delivering.

Celebrate clad coinage
while we’re at it
Today I am totally surprised! With all
the hubbub about creating gold and silver
as well as other high cost precious metals
commemorating the 100th anniversary
of the Winged Head Liberty dime (a.k.a.
the Mercury dime), that was to symbolize freedom of thought in America, and
the Standing Liberty quarter, no one has
given a thought to commemorate the 50th
anniversary of the introduction of clad
coinage in precious metals.
Again, the U.S. government is missing
a perfectly good opportunity to waste both
taxpayers’ money and some numismatists’
time and income by producing as many
gold-, platinum- and palladium-clad commemoratives of the 1965 issues of the
clad coinage that can be conceived. Each
denomination, from dime to half dollar

VIEWPOINT
Local shows backbone of hobby
By Connor Falk
When’s the last time you attended a local
coin show? If you never have or if it’s been
a while, I recommend you pay one a visit.
I had the good fortune to be able to attend
three area coin shows in the past two months
with a fourth, the Numismatists of Wisconsin
show in Iola, Wis., on its way May 16-17. I’ve
since realized that local coin shows are where
the hobby is best represented.
Shows provide the opportunity to deal
with local collectors and dealers. Instead of
buying a 1976 Bicentennial 40 percent silver proof set on eBay, I was able to get all
three coins in grades and prices that I liked
from two dealers. It saved me the hassle
of breaking open a set and I met two new
dealers to do business with in the future.
When you do business with someone
often, they’ll learn your name and even
throw a few deals your way. I was able to
Whether you are in Green Bay, left, or Wausau, local Wisconsin shows are an easy way to do
business with a dealer face to face. The same is true at local shows across the nation.
get a good price on a $100 Confederate
note at the Wausau, Wis., coin show April
19 because I had dealt with the seller often.
Another dealer at the Green Bay, Wis., coin
show May 3 pointed out some paper cur-
rency I’d like because he knew what I was
looking for. It’s actions like these that make
me seek out their tables at each show.

(the half dollar is included because it too
was clad coinage, but instead was silver
not copper-nickel) could be produced in
half ounce, ounce, and 5-ounce weights.
If that isn’t enough, they can make
even larger weights.
The half-ounce dime featuring
Roosevelt could be produced in a .999
fine silver and as a copper sandwich like
its copper-nickel clad counterpart.
The Washington quarter (pre-States
and Territories quarter design) can be
produced in the silver-copper one-ounce
sandwich, and a .999 fine gold and .999
fine zinc sandwich as well.
The half dollar coins could be made as
the others mentioned above, as well as in
platinum and palladium clads in 5-ounce
size as well as one-ounce sizes.
Of course all the clad commemoratives will have the dual dates (1965-2015)
honoring the 50 years of clad coinage in
America.
Come on, Senators and Congresspersons!

Coin shows also give you a sense of
where the hobby is going. As I walked
into the Wausau show, I saw a group of
Boy Scouts working on their merit badges.
Once I was on the bourse floor, I noticed
more children and teenagers than I normally see working on their collections. Even
for someone who is pessimistic about the
future of the hobby, it is encouraging to see.
If you have a free weekend coming up,
check out the Show Directory beginning
on Page 48. It has a list of upcoming coin
shows in each state with information on
where it’s being held. When you go to
one, tell me of your experience. Send me
an email at connor.falk@fwcommunity.
com. I’d like to know how it went. Perhaps
you will even share your thoughts with
me on the importance of local coin shows
to numismatics.

You all still have six months left to get this
authorized and minted in limited editions.
The collectors will love it! (Like “Susie,”
“Saggie” and the “Prexies!”)
Still not enough versions? You can
always do strikes in proof, reverse proof,
enhanced uncirculated and uncirculated at
all four mints.
Sadly, even after reading this whole
letter, probably not too many people will
realize that I am only kidding.

How are various cameo
surfaces created?
As a long-time reader of Numismatic
News I have enjoyed your articles.
Regarding your latest one, I have now
placed an order with the Brooklyn
Gallery C&S Inc. for the current deluxe
edition of the Red Book.
One rather perplexing and mysterious niche of numismatics may be
worth writing about as a future NN
article. In the Roosevelt dimes and
other contemporary coins we come
across “Cameo,” “Deep Cameo,” “Ultra
Cameo,” “Burnished” and “Satin” finishes. Yet the literature seems to be
devoid of how these surface treatments
are performed, how one distinguishes
between “Cameo” and “Deep Cameo,”
for instance and the methodology used
to create these exotic surfaces.
My coin clubs include three small
dealers and they are as confounded as
I am in this area. Selective sand-blasting of the working dies, and mechanical burnishing of the die fields have
been raised as possibilities. One dealer
guesses that a sand-blasted working
die may strike “Ultra Cameo” coins at
first, then “Deep Cameo” and finally
“Cameo” coins as the die surface wears.
Apparently the grading agencies must
use arbitrary coin models and something
like 40X to 100X microscopy to attribute such coins.
I’ve noticed PF-69 (Ultra Cameo)
modern dimes retailing for $240 or so
– without full bands or a full torch –
whereas the MS-65 non-Cameo barely
escapes the silver bucket.
In any event, I hope that you or one
of the other numismatic experts can
shed some light on this challenging
aspect of coin collecting.

March of Dimes set
mintage stays at 75,000
I purchased a March of Dimes special
silver set on line at the Mint on April 4. It
took me about 5 minutes to complete and
got a confirmation number.
Later in the day I went back to the site
to see if it was sold out. It says you can
still order but it is on back order. More
product is being made with an estimated
date in August.
My question is, do you know if they
are holding to there original 75,000 sets
or are we being duped again by the Mint?
Thanks ahead of time for your answer.
Charles Jordan
Address withheld
Editor’s note: The Mint is holding the
mintage to 75,000.
Print some articles about
foreign crowns, tokens
Here are some suggestions. After
speaking to several collectors, they wish
the coin papers would give a variety of
articles and values in areas never mentioned.
I have saved medallions from the Mint.
What are today’s prices?
Another used to purchase a slew of
things from the old Frankling Mint. He
has no idea what the present values are.
Another older gent used to save only
large silver foreign crowns and old tokens.
He said, “Today they only talk about the
present coins which have no interest for me.”
Anyway, it gives more reading material about our widespread hobby. Many
weren’t around when the silver coins were
in circulation and now have to buy them.
Aside from investing with coins, coins
teach youngsters and oldsters geography,
history, metal varieties, the artistic beauty
from some coins (that’s why the oldsters buy crowns) and can bring families
together with a similar hobby.
I hope I turned on a light.
Just sign me a collector who enjoys it.

Kennedy coin portrait unsettling
I’ve noticed some grousing online
about the portrait of John F. Kennedy on
his 2015 Presidential dollar.
I have to admit I was not thrilled when
I first saw it.
It is not a profile. It is not full-facing.
It is a three-quarters portrait where he is
looking down and to the viewer’s left.
It is jarring.
I did a little more research.
What did I find?
For historical reasons, the portrait is
fitting.
The other 2015 Presidential portraits
show the holders of our top office looking
directly toward the viewer.
If we were doing one of those schooldays math questions that asks us which
item does not belong in the set, every
e-letters
collector would throw the Kennedy image
out of the set of 2015 Presidential coins.
It does not fit. It is different.
But does it belong?
That is the question.
I conclude that it does belong, precisely because it does not fit.
If you look at the gallery of official
Presidential portraits you will notice that
the Kennedy portrait does not fit there
either.
His arms are folded and he is looking
down.
It jars.
That is the way Jackie Kennedy wanted it.
He died in office. That is the history. It
still jars me almost 52 years later.
The Kennedy portrait on the
Presidential dollar is being true to history.
It jars.
When was the last time you felt something so sharply when you looked at a
coin design?
Below are two links. Visit them and
see what you think.
One goes to the Kennedy Presidential
dollar image on the Mint website.
The other goes to the Presidential portrait gallery.

from the May 1 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.
Should Washington be taken off quarter at end of America the
Beautiful program in 2021?
The replacing of George Washington
on the quarter is a good place to begin
returning our coinage to American ideals
rather than departed presidents. The presidents on coinage have run their course.
It is time to depict American ideas that
unite our people and make a statement to
the world of principles which define and
drive our nation. The French do it well
with the classic woman sowing the seeds
of liberty, fraternity and equality.
,and noted how much history there was
in D.C., especially the National Mall.
The take away for me was that the two
greatest presidents in the history of this
country were Abe Lincoln and George
Washington. I would recommend that
Washington remain on the quarter until
2031, then change it to someone else or
back to Liberty in 2032.
Timothy Scharr
No, he should not be taken off. This
trend of changing long standing presidents being taken off our coinage and
currency is ridiculous and would give int
to these special interest groups
Aviston, Ill.
Keep Washington on the quarter.
Change for changes sake doesn’t make
sense to me.
David Klinger
Yes Change it.
Jim Marceau

I recently went along with my wife
on her business trip to Washington, D.C.

Tom DeWell
St. Paul, Minn.
William A. Johnston San Antonio Texas
Yes! Bring back the Barber or Liberty
design, or a new design with Lady Liberty.
This would encourage new collectors and
kids to collect the new and old designs.
I also think that the Mint should continue to offer the 5 ouncers in bullion and
“P” collector versions. A new Liberty
design or incuse Indian design would
be wonderful. Many private Mints currently offer bullion with the incuse Indian
design or the Walking liberty designs, and
they are a very attractive and highly desirable designs.
Robert S. Matitia Address withheld
Retire the Washington quarter after
latest run. Please, let’s go back to old style
beautiful Lady Liberty or best Standing
Liberty quarters.
Edward Abbey
Address withheld
Why not, I will be 70 years old, not
as old as George, but he had a good run.
I would like to see a nice Liberty quarter
before I am done.
Dave Goodman
Conway, S.C.
Well, if it were seriously considered I think
it should only be with an image of Liberty.
Preferably an image much like those
from 100 plus years ago.
It seems so much of America’s symbolism is removed from our coinage.
We don’t see anything that inspires
pride in our country or to instill the want
to live at a higher moral standard.
Otherwise, leave him on there. He
was the first elected president and even
though the people of the time wanted
him to stay in power, he didn’t want
that, he didn’t fight for that. I think he
believed so much in the idea of America
that he retired with the hope America
would grow and become the greatest
nation in the world by the people for
the people.
Eric Nutting Twin Falls, Idaho
Who better to be on the quarter for
so long? He is the father of our country
and with the threats that go around about
doing away with the dollar bill, who
knows if that threat comes to pass.
With whom would you suggest replace
Washington? Lyndon Johnson? Franklin
Pierce? Calvin Coolidge? George W Bush
or George H W Bush? Ronald Reagan
(who took us from a creditor nation to a
debtor one, but oh my what a good feeling
this president made us feel)?
Perhaps Theodore Roosevelt is due for
his own coin (besides the dollar coin).
Harry Truman? Perhaps, but for some
reason not likely.
Sorry, but that’s where my thinking takes
me. Let’s keep George for awhile longer.
Ken Kassen Shawnee, Kan.
Yes, I would like to see a modern version of the Standing Liberty quarter. Let’s
update all our coinage and go back to
Lady Liberty design on all of them. That
might serve as a reminder to our politicians what is important.
Our liberties are slowing fading away
as new laws are being passed within our
government that are slowly eroding our
constitutional rights. We should also
come out with a “Constitution Series”
for our paper money to serve as a
reminder as well.
Did I mention the abolishment of
the Federal Reserve? They are nothing
but counterfeiters stealing the country’s wealth. President Kennedy had the
right idea back in ‘63 with the “United
States Note.”
Lastly, change the “In God We Trust”

Jayne Shelby
Hollywood, Md.
At the end of the America the Beautiful
program they should replace the John
Flanagan version with the image designed
by Larua Gardin Fraser.
Scott Barman
Rockville, Md.
Since our government is used to keeping the one dollar bill in circulation, I’d
say yes! Perhaps at this time, a change
back to a Lady Liberty design would be a
good thing. After all, there is enough time
to collect designs and plan costs.
If no change, perhaps putting the
Washington Monument on the reverse.
In addition, an eagle in flight by would
suffice in having this “freedom” signature
in place.
Simple as this is, may dormancy not be
an option. This has taken place too much
in the legislatures. Enough said, before I
get censored. In all, not by NN.

CCAC recommends designs
By Debbie Bradley
Designs for coins that will honor Ronald
Reagan, the United States’ 40th president,
and Mark Twain, a novelist and humorist, were recommended when the Citizens
Coinage Advisory Committee met March 5
in Portland, Ore.
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

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.

Reverse proofs/from Page 4
Matt Crane of L&C Coins, Los
Alamitos, Calif., said his firm would consider buying some of the new sets.
“If we find it cost effective and it’s
worth it, we’ll sell them,” he said. “We’ll
probably do a year set of the four reverse
proof dollars graded by PCGS. Most
of our customers are coin collectors, so
they’ll go after the reverse proof dollars.”
John Krupka, owner of Point Coin,
Stevens Point, Wis., is less optimistic
about the sets.
“I seriously doubt I will buy any for
the store,” he said. “I think that the Mint is
attempting a lot of combinations to bolster
sales. The collectors are being inundated
with product.”
He said the secondary market for past
Coin and Chronicles sets is very slow.
“I personally don’t think they’re selling very well,” Krupka said. “I think that
people are beginning to realize that it’s
something I don’t have to chase. They’re
not lining up, looking for them.

most value to the assemblage because it is
precious metal.
The Roosevelt set also contains a
bronze medal with no counterpart in
the Truman set as well as a proof clad
Roosevelt dime.
Where the Roosevelt set has four postage stamps in his honor, the Truman set
has just one stamp.
So far, the Roosevelt set has not been
setting any sales speed records. Collectors
have purchased 12,473 of the possible
Kagin/from Page 1
Kagin also seeks to increase endowment
giving and grant funding for the organization.
He recommends giving complimentary
memberships to veterans, partnering with
numismatic auction houses to offer virtual
memberships at no cost to ANA, arranging
special promotions with numismatic firms
and using the latest gaming technology to
stimulate interest by young people.
Kagin said he is proud of the fact that
his firm donated free ANA memberships to
buyers of Saddle Ridge Hoard coins,
20
“If past trends hold up, I question
where these new sets will go.”
The first Coin and Chronicles set featuring a president was the Lincoln set,
released in 2009. The Lincoln set debuted
to a quick sellout of its 50,000 product
limit at a $55.95 price tag. They can now
be purchased for between $75 and $115
on eBay.
The Mint then tried selling the 2013
Theodore Roosevelt set without a product limit, but collectors only purchased
15,144 sets. Initially offered for $57.95,
the set now goes for around $75.
The most recent entry is the 2014
Franklin Roosevelt set which is still on
sale at the Mint for $57.95. Only 12,473
sets have sold since its release on Dec. 22.
In some cases, sets have sold online for
less then the Mint’s price.
Crane said the Mint’s decision to use
reverse proof Presidential dollars for the
sets may shake the market up a bit.
“It’s different than what they’ve done
with the others,” he said. “These new
reverse proof dollars create buzz. With
buzz comes demand.”
He said household order limits, currently five for the Truman set, will affect
how quickly they may sell.
“If they do a low limit, the market will
burn up for this set,” Crane said.
Krupka said interest in the sets may not
support a long-term market.
“Yes, it’s really hot when it comes out
but I think it will fade away,” he said.
“When it releases, that’s the time to sell
them. Is the value there for the long run?
“Look at the prestige sets from the
1980s and 1990s. These sets are a lot like
those. They crashed in price and are now
worth very little.”
Still, there may be a collector base for
the new sets from those who have purchased the previous releases, he said.
“It’s got to be something you as a collector want,” he said.
So, will collector fatigue keep demand
for the sets low or will the lure of a
reverse proof dollar and a low mintage
spark a quick sellout? When the Truman
set releases June 30, collectors will know.
20,000 sets. It has been on sale since Dec.
22, or more than four months.
Can you imagine a new set containing
the Truman reverse proof dollar selling as
slowly as the Roosevelt set?
Just in case, the Mint has established a
5-set household order limit.
In December a purchasing frenzy
surrounded the 2014 American $1 Coin
and Currency Set. That set featured just
an enhanced uncirculated finish on the
Native American dollar paired with a
Series 2013 $1 Federal Reserve Note.
It was the different coin finish that
took the hobby by surprise. The 50,000
mintage was snapped up in a rapid sellout.
Price was $13.95.
The Truman mintage maximum is just
a third as much.
The U.S. Mint will also sell 2015
Coin and Chronicles Sets for Dwight D.
Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon
B. Johnson.
Issue prices and sale dates are yet to
be determined for these. Maximum number of sets available will be an identical
17,000 each except for the Kennedy set,
which will have a 25,000 sales limit.
“Numismatics has been a large part of
my life, growing up in the business, working
for my father and uncle, pioneering the first
B.A. degree and the first and only Ph.D. in
numismatics,” he said.
Kagin said he has served on six nonprofit boards and numerous committees
primarily in numismatics and education
He has been an ANA Summer Seminar
instructor periodically since 1973. He
contributes to several numismatic guidebooks and serves ANA and the Professional
Numismatists Guild as a mediator.
Kagin has written three numismatic
books and many articles.
“I will also be reaching out to the numismatic community for suggestions,” he said.

After inflation tamed, coins returned
■ Many U.S. silver coins were shipped
overseas during the Civil War. Did any
come back?
As of Jan. 1 1879, the U.S. Treasury
Department managed to get paper, gold and
silver at the same value level again, so $1 in
gold was equal to $1 in silver or $1 in paper
money. During the Civil War and for many
years afterwards gold and silver traded at
premium prices to paper money. Just before
the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, it took over
$250 in federal paper money to buy $100
in gold coins. Once equality was restored,
tremendous quantities of coins returned
to this country. Because of the surplus of
coins, production was reduced for years.
a practical method of heat sealing a Mylar
envelope PVC continues in use.
■ Is it true that the San Francisco Mint
struck gold coins in 1974?
Gold medals, rather than gold coins. The
San Francisco Assay Office (correct title at
that time) struck its first gold in 44 years
when it struck the Cable Car Centennial
National Medals. Two examples of the 1.5inch medal were struck in gold, one going
to President Ford, the other to the San
Francisco City Archives.
■ I have a glass paperweight with an
1884 silver dollar embedded in it. Is this
considered to be coin glass?
Coin glass has impressions of the coin
design cast in the glass – not the coin itself,
so you have something different. Perhaps
readers familiar with the embedded coins
might help put a value on your piece.
■ What is the significance of the cameo
designs in the loops of the zeros on the
Canadian 1974 Winnipeg dollar?
The commemorative was struck for the
100th anniversary of the city. The center of
the first zero shows a view of the corner of
Portage Ave. and Main as it appeared 100
years ago. The second zero center shows it
as it appeared in 1974.
■ Wasn’t the mintage figure for the 1893
Colombian half dollar much higher than the
usually quoted 1.5 million?
Actual mintage was just over four
million, but 2,501,700 of the coins were
melted. Rather than confuse people with
facts, the end result is usually quoted.
■ If Mylar film doesn’t have PVC in
it, why isn’t it more widely used for coin
holders?
Mylar is rigid. It is more difficult to use
than the softer PVC. But the reason for the
softness in PVC holders is the plasticizer
that chemically deteriorates in a way that
affects coins by leaving a green slime
on copper and silver coins. So Mylar is
better, but because no one has discovered
22
■ I have a quantity of the gold $50,
$10 and $5 coins issued by Canada. Some
have the fineness as .999, while others
have .9999 instead. Is there more gold in
the latter?
From 1979 through 1982 the Maple
Leaf $50 coin carried the fineness as
.999, while the 1982 fractional pieces and
the 1983 and later $50 coins carry it as
.9999. Both are considered as a minimum
guarantee and any difference in actual
content would be so slight as to require
very sophisticated equipment to detect.
■ In one of your columns you referred to
circulation strikes at San Francisco. Didn’t
it stop striking coins for circulation there
in 1982?
1982 was the last year for San Francisco circulation strikes, so the facility is
now striking collector coins. It has also
struck bullion silver American Eagle coins.
■ What was the issue price of the 1972
ARBC Bicentennial medal with George
Washington on it?
The 1.5-inch bronze medal sold for
$3.50. Packaged with four Bicentennial
stamps, the list price was $5. There is almost
no secondary market, or resale opportunity,
for these and most non-bullion medals of
recent manufacture.
■ With the astronomical numbers of
subway tokens once issued by New York for
example, why aren’t there more of the old
ones available to collectors?
Principal reason is the policy of
exchanging the new tokens, after a fare
increase, for the old ones (redeemed at
their old value), which took most of the
old ones out of circulation. The same
principal has been applied to many
coinage issues.
■ Who designed the Columbian half
dollar?
Charles E. Barber designed the obverse
and George T. Morgan the reverse.
■ Was the Mercury dime the first U.S.
coin to use the fasces as part of the design?
The fasces, an axe wrapped in a bundle of
rods, on the Mercury dime was a first for a
circulating coin, but it was used on a pattern
in 1859 for a proposed half dollar design.
■ Did the government ever issue a CIA
medal?
The one listing I can find is for a medal
issued in 1967 to employees, “For honorable
service.”
■ Did the “U.S.S. Constellation” sail
under another name at one time?
The U.S. Navy began a cruiser during
World War I, which was to be named the
Constellation, so the original was renamed
the Old Constellation, while serving as
a training ship. The cruiser never was
commissioned and “Connie” got her name
back in 1925.
■ Was California gold always shipped
directly to the Philadelphia Mint for
coining?
Most of the gold went first to the New
York Assay Office, which opened in 1854.
This assay office also handled bullion
bars for overseas trade as well, relieving
the Philadelphia smelter of a big load.
Most collectors were unaware of this until
the recovery of the gold aboard the S.S.
Central America beginning in 1987 and the
subsequent publicity about the destination
of the gold.
■ Is it true that several of our coins
minted between 1837 and 1916 had illegal
designs?
The Coinage Act of 1837 (continued by
the Act of 1873) specifically states that the
reverse of our coins is to bear the legend
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Among
others, the Flying Eagle and Indian Head
cents, the silver and nickel three-cents and
the half dimes of 1838-1840 and 1860-1873
all had it on the obverse. All of the dimes
struck between 1859 and 1916 violated this
provision, as do other coins, such as the
1856-1873 gold dollars.

GOLD BULLION MARKET VALUES
Scattered increases hint at better times ahead
By Richard Giedroyc
Plus signs are beginning to appear.
Gains are spotty. There is no pattern.
Some coins in just about any category
continue to decrease despite increases
elsewhere. None of the recent increases
have been significant, but are sufficient
to suggest a healthier market may be
near. Each time gold and silver spike a
percent or two higher it seems to draw
some interest to collectible coins, but
since these metals are trading in a narrow
range, so are most of the coins impacted
by intrinsic value.
Key U.S. Type Coins
Some attention has been given to
recent larger coin shows and auctions.
The total prices realized at these auctions
may be impressive, but once the prices of
individual lots are examined it becomes
apparent most hammer prices are soft.
Serious collectors continue to look for
superior material. Attendance at recent
coin shows by the public is noticeably
down. This doesn’t necessarily suggest the
number of active collectors is diminishing, but that fewer are participating in the
social portion of the hobby. Dealers report
over-the-counter sales are slow, but they
believe people are buying coins online in

Some notgeld issues took form of coins
By Fred Glueckstein
Some years ago while at a coin show
in Baltimore, an attractive piece of nonmetal coinage caught my attention. The
word Kitzingen appeared on the obverse,
and the date on the reverse showed 1921.
It immediately interested me as Kitzingen,
a town in the German state of Bavaria, was
the birthplace of my father in 1912.
The dealer said the coin was German
notgeld. The term was unknown to me.
I learned that in Germany after World
War I, the German central bank had a
shortage of small change for release in
silver and nickel. In an effort to address
the shortage, the local governments used
notgeld or “emergency money” or “necessity money.” Notgeld was not legal tender
but rather a mutually accepted means of
payment. It was mainly issued in the form
of paper bank notes. Occasionally, other
diverse forms of notgeld were used, such as
leather, silk, linen, stamps, aluminium foil,
coal, stoneware and porcelain.

Coins of colored stoneware have been
collected since their time of issue nearly 100
years ago as notgeld emergency money in
Weimar Germany. Inflation accelerated rapidly
in Germany from the end of World War I in
1918 until late 1923 when the rentenmark was
introduced. Coins soon became too expensive
to produce in any material and the country
relied instead on paper money of higher and
higher values. The terrible inflation destroyed
the monetary savings of the middle class.
the German Government experimented
with porcelain and stoneware coins.” He
added: “31 different varieties were issued
but none were released to general circulation as the government decided against
their use mainly because they were easily
broken, inconvenient to carry and would
not fit in existing counting machines.”
Notgeld was issued by an institution not normally authorized to release
money. Such issuing institutions included
municipalities, savings banks, municipalities, private and state-owned firms
and towns. Among the towns using
notgeld, including porcelain and stoneware, were Meissen, Eisenach, Freiburg,
Munsterberg, Quedlinburg and Kitzingen,
home of my father.
I bought the brown-colored stoneware
3-mark piece with the Kitzingen design,
and it began for me a new and extremely
interesting chapter of coin collecting.
Over the years, I searched for other pieces
of the Kitzingen design and found a 1
mark and a 50 pfennig.
I also learned more about porcelain
and stoneware notgeld.
From 1921 to 1923 porcelain and
stoneware were commissioned from the
famous porcelain works at Meissen in
Saxony. They came in the following
denominations: 10, 20 and 50 pfennig,
and 1, 2, 3, and 5 mark. As the true color
of porcelain is usually white, some of the
porcelain coins were made in white. Since
stoneware is opaque and usually colored,
these coins were manufactured in brown.
Stoneware notgeld was popular with the
public. They were collected because of their
artistic design and often made in attractive reddish brown Bötterstoneware. The
coin displayed the crossed swords found
on every product of the Meissen porcelain
works since 1722. The Kitzingen stoneware
3-mark design depicts a little girl walking
with jugs and the turret from the town crest.
I am hopeful that in addition to the
Kitzingen coins that I have, the illustrated design exists in the other denominations discussed here. If so, the number
of these fragile coins is, of course,
unknown, but the essence of coin collecting is the search.
As the last Kitzingen coins that I
obtained were directly from Germany, I
will continue exploring availability there.
For me, the beauty of the Kitzingen stoneware coin, coupled with its tie to my family’s history, makes the numismatic hunt
for it fulfilling and stimulating. X

Goetz ‘Lusitania’ medal copies sold by Allies
By Kerry Rodgers
At some stage most numismatists will
stumble over one of the cast bronze medals of Karl Goetz – or a replica – that
shows the sinking of the passenger liner
Lusitania, guns and munitions cascading
from its decks. Of course, a story goes with
the medal, one central to World War I. It is
one that has been told many times, as by
Greg Burns in his well-researched book
Commemoration of Death: the medals of
the Lusitania murders.
For a long time Greg’s website, www.
lusitaniamedal.com, has provided authoritative and detailed information of the different versions of the medal that exist.
Nonetheless confusion persists with misidentifications of these types frequent in
dealers’ lists and auction catalogs. With the
centenary of sinking dawning on May 7, it
is a tale worth reviewing.
RMS Lusitania and her sistership RMS
Mauretania were two giant passenger liners built by Britain’s Cunard Line before
WWI with a £2.6 million government loan.
They were designed to compete with the
German Kaiser Class ships that dominated
the lucrative trans-Atlantic passenger/emigrant routes in the early 20th century.
At the time the two ships were the largest built. They were 10,000 tons larger than
the most modern of the German liners.
Their six accommodation decks above the
waterline gave them 50 percent more passenger space than their nearest rival. All
three passenger classes were catered for in
relative luxury.
Both were powered by Parsons’ revolutionary turbine engines. These could produce 76,000 hp, far more than the 23,000
hp of British Dreadnought class battleships
and the 41,000 hp of Invincible class battlecruisers. The engines made the twin
ships the fastest passenger liners afloat,
enabling Britain to win back the Blue
Riband speed record from Germany for the
transatlantic crossing.
Lusitania entered service on Aug. 26,
1907. She had been designed to be readily
converted to an auxiliary cruiser. However,
her fuel consumption of 37.6 tons/hour
was too pricey for the Admiralty’s budget. Nonetheless when war did break out,
she carried government cargoes. Inevitably
these included war materiel.
The Lusitania’s role as a Trojan Horse
was well known. Germany long regarded
her as a legitimate target. In response to a
British sea blockade, Germany declared a

war exclusion zone about the British Isles
in February 1915. U-boats patroled the
area. Any British ships within this zone
were liable to be searched and/or destroyed.
Many liners laid up during the war, but
the Lusitania remained in service. As an
economy measure boilers were shut down
and her speed trimmed by 4 knots.

Lusitania/from Page 34
On May 1, 1915, the Lusitania was to
sail out of New York for the U.K. Prior to
her departure the German ambassador to
the United States placed a warning in U.S.
newspapers that all vessels flying the Great
Britain flag, “in the waters adjacent to the
British Isles” … “are liable to destruction”
… “and that travelers sailing in the war
zone on the ships of Great Britain or her
allies do so at their own risk.”
Nonetheless, the Lusitania steamed out
of New York at noon on May 1. Among
her passengers were the rich and famous.
She was also carrying a quantity of rifle
ammunition and other sundry war supplies.
On May 5 a warning went out to all vessels that German submarines were operating off the south coast of Ireland. On May
7 the Lusitania was spotted 18 km off
Ireland’s Old Head of Kinsale by U-boat
U-20. One torpedo was fired at a range of
700 meters. It struck on the starboard side
behind the bridge. The liner sank in 18
minutes with the loss of 1,198 lives out of
a total of 1,959.
The day following the sinking the
German government issued a formal communiqué. It stated baldly that the Cunard
liner Lusitania had been torpedoed by a
German submarine and that it had been
armed with guns and carried quantities of
war materiel.
Official enquires took place on both
sides of the Atlantic, not the least in the
United States given that of the 139 U.S.
citizens on board 128 lost their lives.
In London changes were made to
the Defense of the Realm Act to muzzle
attempts to discuss the Lusitania’s cargo
and other confidential matters. First Lord
of the Admiralty Winston Churchill made
it clear he wanted the liner’s Captain Turner
hung out to dry.
In the event, it all got too hard. Turner,
the Cunard Company, and of course, the
Royal Navy were absolved from any blame.
The entire responsibility was placed on,
“those who plotted and with those who
committed the crime.”
In two days Lord Mersey closed the
London inquiry and formally resigned,
waiving his fees. His parting words were:
“The Lusitania case was a damned, dirty
business!” His full report is still not publically available.
The U.S. investigation predictably found,
“the cause of the sinking was the illegal act
of the Imperial German Government.” It
ruled that claims for compensation should
be addressed to the German government,

which paid out $2.5 million in 1925.
Both findings filtered through to the
German media as did the propaganda campaign launched by the Allies in the wake of
the death of over a thousand civilians.
The reports in the German newspapers
were read by Karl Goetz, a medalist and
sculptor living in Munich. Goetz was a
loyal German. Before, during and after
the war he used his particular skills to
produce 175 satirical medals, heavy with
derisive commentary disparaging the Allies
and their wartime actions. Effectively each
medal was a political cartoon in metal.
Most were produced in small runs of 500
or less.
The holier-than-thou reaction of Britain
to the sinking of the Lusitania provided
ready-made grist for Goetz’ numismatic
mill. His understanding was that the liner
had been a military transport with the passengers little more than civilian shields.
Three months following the sinking, Goetz
produced his classic medal sculptured with
all his undoubted skill. It was sandcast in
bronze.
The obverse shows the Lusitania slipping beneath the waves stern-first - the
opposite of what occurred. Cannon and
other armaments are scattered across her
decks. Above are the words, KEINE BANN

Unfortunately Goetz had made a mistake. On the basis of what he had read
in his newspaper he dated the sinking as
“5.MAI,” i.e., two days prior to the actual
date. By the time he realized his error he
had already distributed numerous copies
of his new work. On the home front the
mistake seemed inconsequential but not so
across the Channel.
The British seized on the blunder.
They appreciated it held considerable
propaganda value. They sent photographs of it to the U.S. where the New
York Times published it on May 5, 1916.
Popular magazines in the U.S. even
claimed copies had been awarded to the
crew of the U-boat.
But the British were far from done.
The intense interest in Goetz’ medal led
Lord Newton, in charge of propaganda
at the Foreign Office in 1916, to see how
he might use it to further inflame antiGerman sentiment. He asked department
store entrepreneur Harry Selfridge to
make copies.
Each was sold for a shilling housed in
a striking case and claimed to be an exact
copy of the original. An included pamphlet accused the Germans of premeditated wholesale murder as evidenced by
the incorrect date that showed Goetz’
medal had been prepared in advance. A
claim was made that the medals had been
distributed in Germany, “to commemorate the sinking of the Lusitania.”
It has been estimated that some
250,000 of the copies were eventually
sold. All proceeds were given to the Red
Cross and St. Dunstan’s Blinded Soldiers
and Sailors Hostel.
All British copies are of rather poor
quality. They can be distinguished easily
from the finely made bronze originals.
They were mass-produced by die casting commonly, but not always, in iron.
Importantly many, but not all, show the
German “MAI” as the English “MAY.”
Numerous versions of the MAY type are
known.
The moment Goetz realized the
British were exploiting his mistake he
produced a second version with of the
correct “7.MAI.” However, such was the
propaganda furor unleashed by the first
Goetz medal that the German authorities
suppressed the second one.
Meanwhile, back in the U.S.A.,
Gustav Sandstrom and Clarence Mahood

of Pennsylvania crafted their own copy
of the medal. They sold these along
with their own propaganda leaflet for 50
cents apiece or three for a dollar. Like
the British copies these U.S. versions
lack the quality of the original. The
most obvious identifying feature is the
bug-eyed, bloated skull of Death. But
Sandstrom and Mahood did get the spelling of MAI correct.
In the 1970s Karl Goetz’ son and heir,
Guido Goetz, licensed a Japanese firm
to produce copies of many of his father’s
more popular medals. These included
both Lusitania versions. All these replicas are far more finely finished than the
originals. They were sold quite cheaply
but are now scarce and realize a premium
whenever offered for sale.
And an ever-growing number of
“official” and many unauthorized copies
continue to appear. All can be distinguished from the originals by a keen and
educated eye. However, caveat emptor
particularly when buying on the web.
The edge of some, but not all, of
Goetz’ own medals are marked with his
signature stamp. Its presence is an indication of a medal’s authenticity. However,
its absence does not signify a copy.
In summary the main varieties consist of
• Goetz’ first medal dated 5.MAI
1915 with and without his edge stamp
• Goetz’ second medal dated 7.MAI
1915 with and without his edge stamp
• various British copies dated 5 MAY
(with differing styles of Y) and 5 MAI
• U.S. copies mainly with bug-eyed
Death and 5 MAI and lacking umlauts
• Japanese copies in both bronze and
silver of both Goetz medals
• various modern reproductions
• various museum reproductions
• various unofficial imitations
As mentioned earlier these types are
often confused, even by reputable auction houses and dealers. A couple of
years back, one described as, “original
German medal” was sold at auction for
$700. It was a Sandstrom and Mahood
copy.
Specialists employ a variety of techniques to distinguish the different types,
including a detailed visual inspection, the
quality of the casting, ferromagnetism,
edge marking, patination, weight, specific gravity, distance of lettering from
the edge, and the presence or absence
of German umlauts in GERSCHÄFT
ÜBER. Only Goetz’ versions show the
date as “5.MAI” or “7.MAI”; the period
is missing from all British and U.S. copies.
Today those British and U.S. copies
command a reasonable price in reasonable condition, particularly when accompanied by their propaganda pamphlets
and boxes. There are at least two varieties of the English language British pamphlet. It also comes in both Spanish and
French versions both of which are rare.
But be wary, knock-off copies of the
pamphlets – and boxes – abound.
By the way, the last survivor from the
Lusitania died on Jan. 11, 2011. She was
Audrey Lawson-Johnston who was three
months old at the time of the sinking.

Poland building housed three banks
The following is Part VI of a series of visits by Mark Hotz to Upstate New York banks.
The first installment appeared in the Jan. 20,
2015 Numismatic News Express and the second one in the Feb. 10 issue. The third was in
the Feb. 24 issue. The fourth was in the March
31 issue. The fifth was in the April 14 issue.
From Newport, N.Y., which we visited
last month, I continued northwest on State
Route 28 four miles to Poland, an old village
that straddles State Routes 28 and 8 in southern Herkimer County. Poland had supported
no less than three national banks, though
none of them operated simultaneously, and
all of them occupied the same structure.
Poland was first settled circa 1800 on land
owned by Samuel Wright and was briefly
called Maple Valley and then Russia Flats.
The first post office, established in 1838 in
the hotel at the corner of Main and Chase
streets, was known as Danielsville, after
Nahum Daniels who owned a large amount
of land in the village. The first postmaster,
Joseph Benchley, soon changed the name
because of the confusion with Dansville in
western New York. The simplest explanation
for the name Poland is that is located adjacent
to and southwest of Russia (a town just north
of Poland in Herkimer County), just like
Poland in Europe.
In 1869, there were 200 residents and
approximately 60 buildings. By the 1880s
there was a church, bank, store, hotels, grist
and saw mill, tannery sash and blind factory,
wagon shop, two blacksmith shops, cheese
box factory, cabinet shop, etc. Poland was
incorporated May 10, 1890 with Charles
Bowen as the first president (mayor). By
1906, there were more than 150 buildings
even after two disastrous fires.
Poland today is just a shadow of its former
self. The town is small but quaint, with just
500 residents. But this was not always so;
its location on two well-used routes made it
a frequent stop for travelers and small local
industries grew in the area. As the nature of
commercial business and industry changed,
however, Poland fell on hard times. Today, the
village has no major industry, and a perusal
of local businesses finds those of the type
that just gear to local patrons and to tourists.
As mentioned previously, Poland was
the home to three currency-issuing national
banks. Its first, the Poland National Bank,

Here is a Series of 1875 $5 note issued by the Poland National Bank of New York. This
bank only issued Series of 1875 note prior to liquidation in 1890. Photo courtesy Heritage Auctions
When the National Bank of Poland liquidated voluntarily in 1910, it was immediately
succeeded by the Citizens National Bank of Poland, which issued Series of 1902 and
Series of 1929 notes. All three of Poland’s banks operated out of the same building.
Here is a Series of 1902 Date Back note issued by the Citizens National Bank.
When the Poland National Bank liquidated in 1890, the National Bank of Poland was
immediately chartered and took up the slack. Here is a lovely Series of 1882 $20
Brown Back issued by the this bank, which lasted until 1910 when it liquidated on the
expiration of its charter. Photo courtesy Heritage Auctions

The Citizens National Bank of Poland was the only one of Poland’s banks to issue small size notes, as this bank survived the end of the National
Currency era in 1935. Here is a Series of 1929 Type 2 $20 note issued by the bank.

charter 2441, was organized at the end
of 1879 and issued solely $5 notes of
the Series of 1875 before it was liquidated at the expiration of its charter in
the first week of 1890. Just three notes
are reported, one of which I have photographed to accompany this article.
The bank was more or less reorganized and (still in 1890) immediately
re-opened its doors, this time as the
National Bank of Poland, charter 4223.
This bank issued Series of 1882 Brown
and Date Back notes and a smattering
(just 82 sheets) of Series 1902 Date
Back notes before its charter expired
on July 1, 1910 and it voluntarily liquidated. From this bank just four notes
are reported; a lovely Brown Back $20
accompanies this article.
Keeping up with the tradition of
voluntary liquidation and immediate
re-chartering, the Citizens National
Bank of Poland received charter 9804
in July 1910. This bank actually thrived
(by Poland’s standards) and survived
the end of the national currency era in
1935. This bank circulated $880,000
in Series of 1902 Blue Seal and Series
of 1929 small-size notes. Currently,
10 large and a dozen small notes are
reported, and I have included photos of
each to accompany this article.
Some years back, I acquired a real Here is a vintage photo postcard view of the National Bank of Poland circa 1905 from the author’s collection.

Poland/from Page 42
photo postcard view (circa 1910) of the bank
building in Poland, so I had a good idea of
what I was looking for if the building was
still standing. Poland is a very small town
(more like a village) and if the building
remained, I didn’t think it would be hard to
find. I entered the town from the south on
Route 28, and it wasn’t long before I found
the old bank building, somewhat remodeled but easily identifiable, standing on
Main Street at the intersection with Route 8
(known as Cold Brook St. in town).
This same building, a classic two-story
corner structure, had served as the home
to all three of Poland’s national banks.
The building has been enlarged over time,
mainly with an addition on the right end
(in exactly the same style). The metal staircase leading to the bank entrance has been
replaced with a modern concrete one, and
the word “BANK” so easily visible at the
top of the bank’s front cornice has been
removed. Today, the building serves the
community as the home of Main Street
Chiropractic. See the then and now photos
and compare for yourself.
Compared to some other towns I had
visited previously on this trip, Poland was
not as well preserved. Old homes lined both
sides of Main Street, but many were not well
maintained. It was interesting to see several
that were clearly antebellum. I have included a photo of one particularly 1860s-style
home. Directly across from the bank, I
spied an antique domicile that I dubbed the
“Munster” house for its resemblance to the
residence featured on the 1960s TV show
“The Munsters.” Given its currently shabby
appearance, it gives off a spooky vibe.
Over the years a couple very attractive
Brown Back notes on the National Bank of
Poland have appeared on the market, including the note shown with this article. At those
times, I failed to “step up” on either, leaving
them to the die-hard New York collectors.
However, now having visited Poland and
seen its bank and classic old structures, I
might be more aggressive the next time one
becomes available.
The cold winter has finally dissipated
here on the East coast, and I hope to be able
to some more traveling to visit more small
towns. Next month, we will continue this
Upstate New York sojourn with visits to
Waterville and Morrisville.
Readers may address questions or comments about this article or National Bank
Notes in general to Mark Hotz directly by
email at [email protected].

The old Poland bank
building as it appears
today. This building
held all three of
Poland’s banks. You
can compare its
modern appearance
to the 1905 view
that accompanies
this article. Today
the buildings
houses Main Street
Chiropractic.
Shown is a typical early home in Poland, N.Y. The style is antebellum, but the house could have
been built in the 1870s.
This old and distinctive house, clearly in need of maintenance, stands across Main Street from
the bank building. The author dubbed it the “Munster House” due to its resemblance to the house
used on the 1960s TV Sitcom “The Munsters.”
2015 W Burnished SAE’s
Available in SP70 and SP69 First Strike Flag Labels!
The term “burnished” refers to the specialized minting
process used to create these coins. Although they are similar
in appearance to the ordinary Uncirculated (BU) Silver
American Eagle Bullion Coins, the burnished coins can be
distinguished by the addition of a ‘W’ mintmark on the
reverse and the satin-like field behind the frosted features
on the coin. Burnished SAEs are made expressly for
collectors and still contain 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
