MORE ON LEO MILDENBERG

  Rick Witschonke writes: "Dave Kellog's note in response
  to your request for recollections of Dr. Leo Mildenberg
  reminds me that I also attended Leo's talk in Boston.  I
  subsequently had the opportunity to sit next to Leo at an
  ANS-sponsered dinner that evening, and I asked him about
  the "eye" for great style in an ancient coin.  He allowed that
  it was a rather rare gift.  When I pressed him as to who he
  thought had the gift, he singled out Sylvia Hurter (his assistant
  and eventual successor as the head of the Numismatic
  Department at Bank Leu), and Bruce McNall (former head
  of Numismatic Fine Arts, and sometime prison inmate; I
  recommend his recent autobiography)."
