Coin Collecting Boards
The best new board to surface is a Lincoln Printing board for Buffalo Nickels that has the title misspelled as NICKLES. I took this
recently in trade, only to find out that reader Chris Buck also had an example and had not yet reported it to me. It has been cataloged as
L5¢BC.2, while the variety previously listed with that number is now L5¢Bc.3, as it clearly followed the misspelled variety.
Two new Oberwise varieties surfaced over the past few months: O5¢Bq and O25¢Ac. The latter is particularly significant, as it features
the deeply marbled face printing so prized by collectors. It also has a correct date span pasted over incorrect dates. Rather than damage
the board by removing these additions, it may be presumed that the underlying dates are those intended for the concluding board for the
Barber Quarter series. The seller’s photos for two of these new boards are included with this newsletter.
The annual updates to both my coin board and coin album books are also included with this newsletter. There are relatively few changes
to the former, but there has been some upward price movement.
Library of Coins and Treasury of Coins Albums
My next book covers the Library of Coins and Treasury of Coins album lines and is now in the layout process. I expect it to be in print by
the spring. My website is still down, awaiting the time to put together an entirely new version. As soon as the new book is off to the
printer I can begin working on this.
