COIN WORLD NOTES
Recent Coin World issues have many items of interest:
* George Fuld published his list of McKenney-Hall
Indian chief portraits wearing peace medals (see The
E-Sylum v4#11, March 11, 2001) and a list showing
the number of each issued (August 13th issue, p72).
* Stuart Segan's latest "Coins Online" column leads off
with a nice discussion of our favorite numismatic email
list, The E-Sylum. (August 13th issue, p75)
* Dick Johnson's opus on numismatic artists is in its
final stages. "A comprehensive numismatic reference
chronicling the medallic, token, and coinage craftsmanship
from 1652 to date of more than 3,100 American artists,
diesinkers, engravers, medalists and sculptors is being
researched and compiled by numismatic researcher
Dick Johnson, the first editor of Coin World."
"..the publication date has been moved back to the spring
of 2002 at the earliest to accommodate more research."
(August 6th issue, p137)
* Dave Bowers' latest, "A California Gold Rush History
featuring the treasure from the S.S. Central America"
is being offered in extensive two-page ads. Sponsored
by Dwight Manley and his California Gold Marketing
Group, the 1000+ page book was "produced at an
expense involving over $200,000 in research and
preparation." The ad includes reviews from Ken
Bressett, Bob Campbell, David Hall, Dave Harper,
Clifford Mishler, Bill Murray, Eric Newman, Harry
Salyards. (August 6th issue, p52-53)
