JULIAN SATIRICAL MEDALS COMPLETED

  Steve Pellegrini writes: "I have finally managed after years of
  effort to complete a set of the political-satirical medals created
  and published by RW. Julian from 1977-1981. As the result
  of a mention of the medals in E-Sylum I was offered a pristine
  little group of the issues I was missing. While I was cataloguing
  these new acquisitions I had the opportunity to review the entire
  series. It struck me that the topical concerns  expressed in these
  medallic editorials of a quarter century ago are the exact same
  topics still in the fore of America's national dialogue today. Mr.
  Julian has written of his series,  "The satirical medals were
  intended as a permanent memorial to those issues that ought
  not to be forgotten..." I'd say that by that and any other
  measure he succeeded admirably. Not to mention his once
  again having enriched the US numismatic series by his work
  and unique intellectual gifts."
