NBS Vice-President Elizabeth Hahn Benge forwarded this note about some official society business she took care of for us on a recent
trip. Thanks! -Editor
I was in Rome, Italy, recently for a work trip and had the opportunity to present Eleonora Giampiccolo with her NBS Jack Collins
Writer's Award for her article in The Asylum about the Vatican coin cabinet. Here is a photo of me with Eleonora inside the
Vatican coin cabinet where she works (her full title: Dr Eleonora Giampiccolo, Curator responsible for the Vatican Medagliere). We are also
pictured with Prof. Giancarlo Alteri, former keeper of the Vatican Medagliere and Director of the Coin cabinet of the Veneranda Biblioteca
Ambrosiana. Eleonora was thrilled and honored to receive the award!
