1792 HALF DISME LISTING UPDATE

Pete Smith submitted this update on the 1792 Half Disme project he's working on with Len Augsburger and Joel Orosz. Thanks. -Editor

1792 Half Disme rev Two weeks ago I asked for reports from people who owned or knew of 1792 half dismes. I received four reports on the first day, one on the second day and none since. The information provided was helpful in establishing pedigrees for surviving examples.

I have now received two reports of a coin for sale at the ANA that I did not see. The person reporting could not recall what dealer had it. This is frustrating and a missed opportunity.

The coin may show up at a local or regional show that I don't attend. I would appreciate reports with the name of the dealer and really appreciate reports with the certification number.

In the past year there have been six pieces for sale that I have seen in hand or in photos. I have reports of another three to five that are supposed to be on the market that I have not seen. The research will continue until we get much closer to publication.
