The latest addition to the Newman Numismatic Portal is the journal of the Missouri Numismatic Society. Project Coordinator Len Augsburger
provided the following report. Thanks! -Editor
The Newman Portal has scanned the Missouri Journal of Numismatics, the journal of the Missouri Numismatic Society (MNS). Formed in
1938, Eric P. Newman was a charter member and an officer, in the earliest days, of the Society. His membership number, #4, was drawn out of a hat at
the inaugural meeting. The current Journal has been issued annually since 1976.
The early issues served to promote the MNS Annual Coin Festival, held each summer, and also featured serial installments on Missouri
tokens and medals. This is a recurrent theme in the Journal, with the 2007 edition noting “the editor encourages reader assistance in
locating, attributing, and documenting the historical significance of numismatic items relating to Missouri.” The Newman Portal wishes to
thank Chris Sutter and Kathy Skelton of the MNS for their assistance.
