MINTS AND MINTING ON STAMPS

  Dick Johnson writes: "The current issue of Topical Time, for
  stamp collectors of all topics, contains an article of interest to
  numismatists.   "Of Mints and Minting" is in the July-August
  2003 issue (page 35?37).  Written by Johann G. Meiring, a
  retired banker of Pretoria, South Africa, it's his second article
  relating to numismatics; the previous was "Early Media of
  Exchange" (Topical Time, Nov-Dec 2001).

  The present article includes stamps illustrating external views
  of mint buildings and views of minting equipment. Discussed
  are 27 stamps (with Scott numbers). Seven are illustrated,
  along with a 1983 souvenir booklet of Great Britain with a
  cover photo of dies and engraver's tools and a very brief
  story of the Royal Mint.

  Does any E-Sylum subscriber have an extra copy of this
  Topical Time issue which could be donated to the AMerican
  Numismatic Society library?  They are not a Topical Time
  subscriber and this article deserves to be cited in their library
  databank.    Otherwise I will send a photocopy.   Let me
  know at: dick.johnson at snet.net."
