COIN WORLD NOTES 

   Recent Coin World issues have many items of interest: 

   * George Fuld published his list of McKenney-Hall 
      Indian chief portraits wearing peace medals (see The 
      E-Sylum v4#11, March 11, 2001) and a list showing 
      the number of each issued (August 13th issue, p72). 

   * Stuart Segan's latest "Coins Online" column leads off 
      with a nice discussion of our favorite numismatic email 
      list, The E-Sylum. (August 13th issue, p75) 

   * Dick Johnson's opus on numismatic artists is in its 
      final stages.  "A comprehensive numismatic reference 
      chronicling the medallic, token, and coinage craftsmanship 
      from 1652 to date of more than 3,100 American artists, 
      diesinkers, engravers, medalists and sculptors is being 
      researched and compiled by numismatic researcher 
      Dick Johnson, the first editor of Coin World." 
      "..the publication date has been moved back to the spring 
      of 2002 at the earliest to accommodate more research." 
      (August 6th issue, p137) 

    * Dave Bowers' latest, "A California Gold Rush History 
       featuring the treasure from the S.S. Central America" 
       is being offered in extensive two-page ads.  Sponsored 
       by Dwight Manley and his California Gold Marketing 
       Group, the 1000+ page book was "produced at an 
       expense involving over $200,000 in research and 
       preparation."   The ad includes reviews from Ken 
       Bressett, Bob Campbell,  David Hall, Dave Harper, 
       Clifford Mishler, Bill Murray, Eric Newman, Harry 
       Salyards.  (August 6th issue, p52-53)
