WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM FEBRUARY 19, 2012
New subscribers this week include J. Kramer. Welcome aboard! We have 1,510 email subscribers, plus 172 followers on Facebook. This week we open with a look back at the 1983 Long Beach meeting of the NBS and a "mini-review" of Whitman's new Guide Book of Canadian Coins and Tokens. Next come remembrances of two numismatic personalities who passed on recently. Other topics include the Wyon medal dies, Reginald Huth, a Saint-Gaudens statue, commemorative banknotes and reminiscences on John McQueen, Harvey Stack and Alan Weinberg. To learn more about Harold Bareford, cameo incrustations, cardboard tokens from the Tea Gardens of Assam, the H.M.S. Victory's secret cargo of gold and the Token and Medal Society, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
