PENNYPACKER ERROR COIN AUCTION 

   In the June 10, 2001 issue of The E-Sylum (vol 4, no. 24) 
   George Fuld discussed an auction of the Dr. George 
   Hetrick token collection at the Pennypacker Auction 
   Centre in Reading, PA..   Your editor came across a 
   catalog for another important Pennypacker sale - their 
   June 22nd, 1968 sale of the Jess Bausher collection 
   "consisting of early american coins and featuring his 
   famous "error coin collection" used in compiling the book 
   "It's Only Money".   The book was published in 1966 
   and coauthored with Charles V. Dolan. M.D. 

   From the dust jacket: "Jess Bausher, a charter member 
   of C.O.M.E., writes a regular column for Coin-Oddity 
   Magazine.  He is a regular contributor of numerous articles 
   to all of the leading Coin Publications.  A member of the 
   Reading Coin Club and the Berks Coin Club.  A 
   collector and authenticator of Major Mint Errors for 
   over twenty years."   So what is (or was) C.O.M.E.? 
   Collectors of Mint Errors, perhaps?
