CLIVE CUSSLER AND NUMISMATICS

Carl Honore writes: "I liked the Clive Cussler Sahara reference.
This book is not Mr. Cussler's first foray into numismatics. In
his book "Night Probe!" Dirk Pitt ventures into a deserted
tunnel with an old Iron Horse locomotive and a "box with gold
pieces called St. Gaudens". These of course could only be the
double eagles. In his book "Treasure," Lily Sharp, the female
archaeologist finds a Roman or Byzantine gold coin in Greenland
during a dig. Nothing to whet the appetite for adventure
like some kind of lost treasure... "
