QUERY: IMAGE OF MINT DIRECTOR ECKERT SOUGHTRachel Street, Associate Editor at Whitman Publishing, LLC writes: Dennis Tucker and I were hoping the E-Sylum readership might be able to help us with a book we’re working on. We’re seeking an image/portrait of George N. Eckert, director of the U.S. Mint from 1851–1853, and we seem to be coming up short! There must be an image out there somewhere but if there is, I can’t find it! I found several references to Eckert in the index of Don Taxay's U.S. Mint and Coinage, but there were no images of him.
I have a shelf of other U.S. Mint histories, but I'm not sure where to start. Can anyone help? -Editor
