1872 INTERNATIONAL PEACE JUBILEE MEDAL ENGRAVER: PHILIP RANDALL

Last week Dave Bowers wrote:

I wrote:

Dave Bowers sent a scan of a signature on an 1872 International Peace Jubilee shell in last week's E-Sylum asking for the identity of the signature. Editor Homren suggested D. RANDALL.

I searched my databank of American Artists and found a Randall that fit the correct time and place (the Rule of Propinquity). Unfortunately I had no full name nor dates. I had recorded, however, two items by this engraver, both from 1875, and both listed as Holland 4 and 5 from an article in American Journal of Numismatics. This was listed by H.W. Holland in "American Centennial Medals" in the January 1876 issue of AJN.

Also I had a citation by Storer to each of these medals, one in his medical medals, and one in his Massachusetts medals. I had cited that the name had also been recorded by Richard Kennedy in his manuscript cards at the ANS. The name Randall was recorded for only one diesinker in the David Schenkman diesinker archives, recently acquired, but this was for a Randall in Los Angeles decades later. (Rule of Propinquity obviously ruled this out).

But Dave's request sent me deeper into my records. I had compiled a list of all engravers and diesinkers of all kinds and stripes in New England. I had gathered these records for just such an inquiry. Sure enough I found a hit -- Philip G. Randall of Boston. He had been listed in a New England Business Directory of 1875. (Rule of Propinquity proved this was right on target!)

But what were those letters at the end of the name that looked like FNO. FECIT didn't fit. Then I recall how Juniors signed their name in the 19th century JNO.

Sure enough the signature on Dave's piece is P. G. RANDALL JNO for Philip G. Randall of 41 Arch Street, Boston who was active 1872-75.

This does bring me to offer a service to anyone who has an obscure signature, initials or monograms-- on American items only! -- for possible identification. Send a scan, drawing or description as best you can. I will attempt to identify the engraver or sculptor of your numismatic item from my 3,587-artist databank and my other records. Limit 3 at any one time.

If you have a lot to identify buy my book, Monograms of American Medallists, $45 postpaid. Contact: dick.johnson@snet.net.

NORTH CAROLINA STATE TREASURY NOTE SIGNATURE IDENTIFIED

The attached is an image of a genuine 1862 10 cents North Carolina State Treasury note. I would like any readers ideas as to what the signed name is. I have never seen another note with a signature like this.

QUERY: BOOKS ON CHARLOTTE MINT HISTORY

Scott Barman writes:

Well, I have three Charlotte Mint books in my library (besides the Doug Winter book on the Charlotte coins). One is the Birdsall book, published in 1988. The others are:

Stautzenberger, Anthony J., The Establishment of the Charlotte Branch Mint: A Documented History, published in 1976

Wilkinson, Henrietta H., The Mint Museum of Art at Charlotte: A Brief History, 1973

I would recommend having all three - for me, one book is never enough. The Stautzenberger book, as the subtitles states, is a collection of original documents relating to the establishment of the Mint. The Wilkinson book is divided in two parts - the first covers the building and its use as a Mint; the second part covers the building's life as a museum. It's still there, and I should probably add this to my Numismatic Bucket List.

If I had to recommend just one of these, the Birdsall book is probably the best history for a numismatist; it also discusses the coins. Reader thoughts are welcome.

MORE ON ACHIEVEMENT MEDALS

Your request for information on Achievement Medals has already been done. In fact there are several books on the subject. Instead of listing the recipients for you I will list the books that contain these.

Needless to say, one firm dominated the creation of these medals in America in the 20th and now the 21st century: obviously Medallic Art Company. You are correct these medals do come on the market, generally after a generation or two's time. It seems a parent's medals are esteemed and kept within the family but a grandparent's medals are often disposed.

ON GERMAN ANHäNGER OR "GOOD FOR" MEDALS

Several times the item is referred to as a "token." This is a basic error. A token is a "Good For" something. They often are used in place of legal coins or as a promotional or gift give away. This piece is strictly a medal. The correct German term for such an item is "Anhänger," or if you don't have a correct font, "Anhaenger." This means something that one can hang (see the similarity?) somewhere, since the item was made with a loop which probably originally had a small ribbon in it with a pin attached so that one could pin it to a coat, blouse or whatever.

On the "harp" (it's actually a lyre) side of the medal the inscription starts with the number 12 followed by a period (12.). This is a type of shorthand, just the same as 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 12th.

I have run across the Liberty Seated design on German items a few times before in the past. Don't remember exactly for what -- medals or counters or maybe even a real token. I might still have one or two somewhere but I would be hard put to find them.

QUERY: INFORMATION ON DR. JOHN E. WILKISON SOUGHT

I am doing some research on a Dr. John E. Wilkison and recently purchased at auction his copy of the 1953 Palace Collections Catalog inscribed to him by R. Green of Sotheby's. It has what I assume are his personal marks and notations probably written during the auction. I happened to notice David Akers either auctioned off his holdings or purchased them outright. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the Doctor.

It is my hope this research will lead to an article in The Asylum or some other periodical or journal in the future. I am also looking for any other information about the Doctor as I know next to nothing at this time, other than he was a doctor and a coin collector. Obviously of some note if he took the long trip to Cairo in those turbulent times.

CHOPMARK NEWS INTERVIEWS SMITHSONIAN CURATOR RICHARD DOTY

CG: First let me ask you about yourself and your collecting interests. What do you collect?

RD: I‘ve collected many things over the years. I started out with US coins when I was a kid and later moved into foreign coins: 18th and 19th century European stuff, Far Eastern, Roman Imperial, Byzantine, 18th century British tokens, and 19th century Mexican coins which I started about 50 years ago, gave up for a bit, but have now come back to. So a bit of everything.

CG: When did you start collecting?

RD: In 1950.

CG: Did you or do you collect chopmarked coins?

RD: I don‘t collect chopmarked coins in any systematic way, but I do have some. I bought my first chopmarked coin in 1963, a 1807 Mexican 8 reales. I didn‘t know anything about chopmarks at the time. I bought it because the price was pretty good and I could afford it. I was at college at the time. Later I lived in Guam and when I was there some Far Eastern stuff came my way. I have been interested in them ever since. I have a 1904 Mexican Zacatecas peso and a 1877-S US Trade dollar. I have some coins with Korean chopmarks, and I picked up a Philip III or IV piece of eight from Mexico City with very tiny chopmarks. A few of these things came on the market a few years ago. I heard there was a hoard of Mexican stuff found on the coast of China. It makes sense of course, that‘s where the coins went in the China trading days. I‘m not interested in coins unless they have served their actual purpose, which is to say they have been used. Chopmarks show that the coin was used for commerce and probably passed through many hands.

CG: Were you ever a dealer?

RD: No. When I was 15 or 16 years old I worked for some dealers in Portland, Oregon, but I was never a dealer.

CG: Your title is doctor. What is your PhD in?

RD: It‘s not anything remotely related to numismatics. We don‘t have in this country any degrees in numismatics. In Europe it tends to be the handmaiden of archaeology, but we don‘t have that much archaeology around here that involves coins. I mean, if you find a hoard of nickels from 1928 big deal, we already know what was going on in 1928. My PhD is in Latin American studies. I did my PhD in the 1960s when the cold war was on and America was worried about Castro. I concentrated in Latin American history and my dissertation is in Mexican history.

CG: What exactly does a curator do?

RD: It depends on the curator. I spend about 50% of my time writing and 50% researching, mainly on the collections we‘ve got here. My research has tended to be on American topics but my Matthew Boulton book on 18th century British Trade Tokens was done by travelling back and forth to Birmingham, England. I also travel a lot and give lectures. I‘m also mentoring some of the younger people here who are new hires.

CG: Does the Smithsonian have a large numismatic department?

RD: No, there are only four people.

CITY OF LAKEWOOD CHALLENGE COIN

The City of Lakewood has created its own challenge coin, drawing from a military tradition so civic leaders can recognize a job well done.

Its development reflects both the growing popularity of challenge coins in the civilian world and the close ties that Lakewood has with the military. The city is Joint Base Lewis-McChord's closest neighbor. Many service members and veterans live in Lakewood, and a majority of the City Council has served in uniform.

"We recognize that our city is in the heart of the military community here in the South Sound area," said Jordan Haines, co-owner of Lakewood-based COINFORCE.com, which designed the city coin with input from the City Council. "It only made sense for them to have a coin."

Mayor Doug Richardson presented coins to Lakewood Police Chief Bret Farrar and Ken Sharp, chief at West Pierce Fire & Rescue, during Sunday's commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The Lakewood Police Department has its own challenge coins. Former Police Chief Larry Saunders ordered them shortly after the department formed in 2004, and Chief Bret Farrar requested an updated design earlier this year.

The heritage of challenge coins is said to date back to World War I. Service members carry them as proof they belong to a military unit, and commanders often present them to reward notable service. Service members who fail to produce their coin when challenged at a bar traditionally buy a round of drinks for colleagues who show their coins.

Lakewood's coin traces its origin back to a small dilemma for city leaders. Military commanders often presented the coins when they attended homecomings and change-of-command ceremonies at Lewis-McChord. They had nothing to give in return.

Council members Don Anderson and Jason Whalen, who work for the same Tacoma law firm, created a preliminary design that COINFORCE's team could put to metal. The other council members liked the idea.

SECURITY FIRM ANNOUNCES NANO-SCALE BANKNOTE AUTHENTICATION TECHNOLOGY

Nanotech Security Corp. has reached a major milestone in authentication and anti-counterfeiting security technology developed by replicating nano-scale structures similar to those found on the wings of the iridescent Morpho Butterfly. Nanotech Security Corp. is pleased to announce its team of researchers have successfully created the world's first master shim http://www.nanosecurity.ca/press_imagesvideos.php , or master die, that manufacturers can use to reproduce nano-holes in a variety of materials - including banknotes - in large volumes quickly and cost-effectively without changing the manufacturing process.

Because it requires highly-specialized equipment in the tens of millions of dollars, patented algorithms and extensive scientific expertise to replicate the unique nano-structures, Nanotech

Security Corp.'s technology is more secure than current authentication features such as watermarks and holograms – both of which can be forged using readily available printing equipment.

In Canada alone, businesses lose an estimated half a billion dollars a year because of counterfeiting. Counterfeiting has been described by the FBI as the crime of the 21st century.

According to the International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition Inc., a Washington, D.C.-based non-profit organization, counterfeiting is a $600 billion a year problem worldwide annually, with U.S. businesses alone suffering up to $250 billion in unnecessary costs each year. Nanotech Security Corp. has had ongoing discussions with numerous third parties, and has now been asked to produce master shims for commercial trials by a number of those parties.

This shim is fully customizable using a technique called QuickShift®. Nanotech Security Corp. can control and specify what colors are created when the angle of view is changed along with the ability to replicate images.

Nanotech Security Corp's master shim is customizable in size from microns to centimeters. On the shim, stand tens to hundreds of millions of nano-scale pillars and from this master, multiple shims can be manufactured. By imprinting these shims into a material, the pillars emboss a grid of nano-scale holes, creating a signature iridescent effect, similar to that of the Morpho Butterfly.

The company has replicated the features of the master stamp on banknote-grade polypropylene, polyethylene (PET) and acetates.

MILESTONE COINS AND KIDS

In an email exchange about Ken Bressett's Milestone Coins book this week, Dennis Tucker of Whitman Publishing related this story:

I use some of my E-Sylum material in a "coins in the news" segment for the kids program I do at the coin shows here in Virginia. Last time I showed a picture of the "Ides of March" coin and asked who this guy on the coin was, and what he did. It was a little like a game of "Clue" - "The butler did it in the pantry with a melon baller."

After we determined that Brutus killed Caesar I asked "What did he kill him with?", figuring the pictures of the daggers were a dead giveaway. My son Tyler blurted out, "um, a chainsaw??" -Editor

HEDGE FUND BUYING UP NICKELS

Kyle Bass has a lot of spare change.

The founder of Hayman Capital, the Dallas-based hedge fund that profited from the collapse of the housing market, bought 20 million nickels, according to a new book from Michael Lewis.

In "Boomerang," Lewis writes that Bass spent $1 million on 20 million five-cent coins.

Why?

Bass apparently believes that the metal in each nickel is worth 6.8 cents. So the face value is below the underlying value of the coins.

That seems like such an obvious way to make money that its almost surprising everyone isn't hoarding nickels.

The catch is that melting U.S. coins is illegal. In 2006, the U.S. Mint reacted to rising metal prices by passing an interim rule that banned melting coins. In 2007, that rule became permanent.

"The rising commodity prices of copper, nickel, and zinc have increased the value of the metal in both pennies and nickels so that the content of these coins now exceeds their face value," the Mint explained. "There is concern that speculators could remove pennies and nickels from circulation, and sell them as scrap for profit."

THE ORIGAMI-STYLE MONEY SCULPTURES OF ARTIST DAN TAGUE

"We Need A Revolution" and "Reality Sucks"

Dan Tague is a New Orleans-based artist with a different sort of green thumb. Tague folds American banknotes in a sort of slapdash origami-style. Often his mini-money-sculptures look like inconspicuous, crumpled wads of cash. But if you look closer, you'll see that Tague has creased the money in such a way to spell out messages—many of which have an anti-capitalist tone. You probably didn't think that "We Need a Revolution" was written on the six dollars in your pocket. Well, look again.
