WAYNE'S NUMISMATIC DIARY: SEPTEMBER 9, 2008

I was the host of Tuesday's meeting of Nummis Nova, my Northern Virginia numismatic social group. Attendees were Joe Levine, Dave Schenkman, Roger Burdette, Wayne Herndon, Traci Poole and Julian Leidman.

Topics of discussion included Roger's upcoming book on Peace Dollars, a snowstorm visit to Nathan Eglit in Chicago, the Izzy Switt 1933 double eagle legal battle, and microfiche copies of U.S. City Directories 1760-1860. Joe Levine passed around this amusing "City Rat Catcher" badge.

My topic was numismatic periodicals. I'm out of time to recap my presentation, but here are images of some of the items I passed around.

  • Bound Volume 1 of the American Journal of Numismatics
  • Bound Volume 1 of the Coin Collector's Journal (George Rode's copy)
  • Reprint of Frossard's Numisma
  • Bound Volumes 1-3 of the Canadian Antiquarian and Numismatic Journal, with bookplate of the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society of Philadelphia
