Wayne Homren

Among our new subscribers this week are Bo Smith, Patrick John Uram and W. Thomas Corey, courtesy of John and Nancy Wilson, Randall A. See, Mark Gloss, Paul Karanfilian and J. W. Raymond. Welcome aboard! We have 1,467 email subscribers, plus 168 followers on Facebook, including Jerico Cruz.

First, many thanks to Dave Schenkman, David Gladfelter and Dan Hamelberg, all of whom offered assistance to Tom Wetter with his work on the NBS web site bibliography entries for several U.S. numismatic periodicals.

Also, Len Augsburger, Joel Orosz and myself have offered to write descriptions for some of the books not in the "100 Greatest" (for which we already have some great descriptions written earlier by Len for the "100 Greatest" Asylum article. Thanks to Tom for continuing to work on pulling this all together.

This week we open with announcements of three new numismatic books, and an invitation to review a fourth. Topics discussed include Farouk auction attendees, engravers Weeden and Randall, and the Order of the Golden Fleece.

To learn more about U.K. coin designer Norman Sillman, Egyptian-American dealer F.K. Saab, California dealer Harry Shuhart, the Temple sorting office stamp, moon rocks, meteorites and medals and when paper was worth more than gold, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
