Regarding my question about monographs published by the National Coin Collectors Association (NCCA), Mark Verbeck of Lake Bluff,
Illinois writes:
I can supply only a incomplete answer concerning the National Coin Collectors Association. I have Monograph #3, dated June 1991.
Title: LIBERTY SEATED COINAGE
Subtitle: AN INTRODUCTION TO THE COLLECTING OF LIBERTY SEATED HALF DIMES, DIMES, 20-CENT PIECES, QUARTERS, HALF DOLLARS, AND DOLLARS
[this also all-caps, but in smaller font]
Text is numbered pp. 2--15. Back cover is blank.
As you probably recall, Mr. Atkinson was based in Murphysboro, Illinois, close to Southern Illinois University in Carbondale.
Pete Smith writes:
