The Newman Portal was honored by the Numismatic Literary Guild (NLG) at the 2016 ANA convention with the first-ever Coin Dealer Newsletter (CDN) Educational Award. CDN principal John Feigenbaum presented the award to the Newman Portal in recognition of the Portal’s role in centralizing thousands of numismatic documents into an online database.
Separately, the Eric Newman biography, Truth Seeker: The Life of Eric P. Newman, published by Ivy Press, won Book of the Year honors from the NLG at the same event. This award recognizes the work having the greatest potential impact on numismatics. This is co-author Roger Burdette’s fifth such award, and the second for co-authors Joel Orosz and Len Augsburger.
