CHASE MONEY MUSEUM FATE

  Chris Faulkner writes: "In Dick Johnson's piece on resurrecting
  Victor D. Brenner's wheat cent mention is made of the Chase
  Money Museum (in 1972). Can someone tell me what happened
  to that museum and its collection?  Is it still intact?  Mothballed?
  Sold or dispersed? "

  [Alas, the Chase Manhattan Money Museum was dissolved.
  One of its high-profile specimens went to the American
  Numismatic Society - Eric P. Newman persuaded the bank to
  donate its 1804 dollar to the society.   A group of checks with
  presidential signatures went to the National Numismatic
  Collection at the Smithsonian.   Can our readers fill us in on
  more background about the collection and its dispersal?
