The E-Sylum: Volume 11, Number 10, March 9, 2008, Article 12 QUERIES FROM BOB KNEPPER ON DANISH PATTERNS, NUMISMATIC BIBLIOGRAPHY Bob Knepper has two questions for our readers. He writes: "What, if any, book or website covers Danish pattern coins and includes pictures? I have "Danske Provemonter" by Gert Posselt but that covers only 1983 to 1989. If there is such a book, where can I buy or borrow it? "Is there any book or website that brings "Numismatic Bibliography" by E. E. Clain-Stefanelli more up to date?" [Perhaps one of our readers can help identify a reference on Danish patterns. As for an update to the Clain-Stefanelli numismatic bibliography, I'm not aware of anything outside of the ongoing American Numismatic Society 'Numismatic Literature' series. The sheer size of the field (evidenced by the tiny print and huge pagecount of the 1985 Clain-Stefanelli work) would lend itself to a web-based publication in the future. Has the ANS 'Numismatic Literature' series already gone all-digital? I recall reading something about that. -Editor] Bob adds: "Here's another question related to numismatic bibliography: How can I determine the latest editions, in or out of print, of various numismatic books, particularly the Whitman books?" [Bob checked with Whitman and was told they had no such list of their own in and out of print books. While the editions of their latest offerings could be determined by reading the company's latest product catalog or web site, things get murky when titles go out of print. With none to sell the publisher has little incentive to maintain a list. -Editor] Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
