David Finkelstein published the following notice in the September 30, 2012 JR Newsletter, a publication of the John Reich Collectors Society. Knowing many E-Sylum readers might be interested, I'm reprinting it here with permission.

A website has been created to serve as a message board and data repository for anything U S Mint research related. The website is www.USMintResearch.com. The website went live in August, 2012, and focuses on the First and Second United States Mints from 1792-1839, Mint personnel, policies, procedures and operations, research at the National Archives and other facilities, and U S coins prior to 1840. Why 1792-1839? This covers all U S coins struck after the Coinage Act of April 2, 1792 and prior to the Seated Liberty series. Eventually the website will be expanded to include the other Mints and additional series of U S coins.
Participants are encouraged to post documents, research, images, pictures, in-progress articles, and theories, and engage in discussions.
Access to the website is currently restricted. In order to gain access, you have to be invited. The website requires a secure login.
If you are performing research and want to participate, please send an email with your name and reason for joining to David Finkelstein at
