NUMISMATIC LITERATURE EXHIBITS AT MSNS SHOW

NBS President Pete Smith writes: "Last week I attended
the Michigan State Numismatic Society show in Dearborn,
Michigan. The show has an excellent exhibits area
including a classification for numismatic literature.
This show had two exhibits in that class.

Laurence Sekulich took first place for “The Provenance
of Tudeer 99A.” That coin is a Tetradrachm of Syracuse
listed in a book (in German) by Lauro O. Tudeer,
published in 1913. The exhibit included several books
and catalogs that illustrated his coin.

Steven Bieda took second place for “A Complete Library
of Books on Official U.S.A. Presidential Inaugural Medals.”
The title pretty well describes the exhibit.

This leads to a numismatic trivia question. In addition
to being legal counsel for the MSNS, what is Bieda's
numismatic claim-to-fame?"

[Congratulations to the exhibitors, and thanks to
MSNS for making them possible.  It's never too early
to start thinking of putting together a numismatic
literature exhibit for a future show.  Our Featured
Web Page this week is a record of a very nice exhibit
from the 2002 American Numismatic Association convention.
I'd also like to note that Pete Smith's great exhibit on
"The Challenging Literature of A. M. Smith" is also
online at the NBS web site.
