SILVER DOLLAR RELEASE INFO SOUGHT
New subscriber Bryan Sonnier writes: "I'm searching for
information related to the release of Morgan Dollars by the
Treasury in the early 1960's. I'm also interested in any articles
related to the sale of the Carson City silver dollars by the
General Services Administration (GSA) in the early 1970's
and again in 1980.
One interesting advertisement that I came across related to
the Carson City dollar sale. The author of this particular
publication was Deane S. Jones of Reno, Nevada. I would
very much like to get a copy of his publication that was
produced in about 1972.
To date, I've gathered some fairly extensive information on
these topics but am still lacking some of what I'd like to have.
I've worked extensively with issues of Coin World. In fact,
within the next few months I'm actually going to travel to
Sidney, Ohio to conduct my research more extensively.
I've not yet attempted to obtain Treasury reports of that era
but would certainly love to have access to some. I do have
a few GSA reports that were given to me but I've not had
any luck getting info directly from the GSA.
I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide on my research
efforts."
So, E-Sylum readers: Has anyone heard of the Jones
publication? Any suggestions to further his research?
