HERLALDIC ART COMPANY GOLD MEDAL ISSUE PRICE

New subscriber John Meissner writes: "I was doing a Google search for
'Heraldic Art' and came across an earlier E-sylum where Rich Hertzog
was posing a question about the issue prices for Heraldic Art medals
(the Cleveland Ohio firm which started releasing half-dollar sized
commemorative medals in 1959):

"At least for issues #1 and #2 (Alaska and Hawaii statehood, respectively)
of the Heraldic Art Co. gold medals, the original sales price was $40.
This is according to the 1959 and 1960 Clifford Mishler "Medals and Tokens"
catalogs, which I trust implicitly.  I have not been able to confirm this
using contemporary numismatic articles or advertisements, however, it is
possible that these prices were only available to those on the Heraldic
Art Co. mailing list or subscription list.  I assume that these catalogs
would also include original list prices for later medals in the Heraldic
Art Co. series."
