DOUBLE DIMES BOOK ADDENDA AVAILABLE

John Frost is the co-author with Lane Brunner of the book Double Dimes – The United States Twenty-cent Piece. In the September 2016 issue of The E-Gobrecht, Liberty Seated Collectors Club's electronic newsletter, he announced the availability of two addenda to the book. -Editor

Double Dimes As announced in Gobrecht Journal #125 (Spring 2016), Lane Brunner and I confirmed two new die marriages of the 1876-P twenty-cent piece. One new obverse and two new reverse dies were discovered in two new combinations, which is surprising given the total mintage of just 15,900 coins, including proofs!

Lane and I have now completed Addendum 2 for the Double Dimes book and it is now posted for download on our www.doubledimes.com website. In addition, the website pages themselves have been updated to include these new die marriages, minor updates to one of the 1875-P listings (that reverse die was re-used in 1876), as well as a rewriting of the 1876-P Summary pages themselves.

This addendum is the second one created - we had previously announced in the spring 2015, the discovery of a new 1875-CC reverse die and die marriage, which was announced in the E-Gobrecht (Volume 11, Issue 4, Whole # 123, April 2015).

For those readers with the Print Edition of our book, both Addendum 1 and Addendum 2 are available for download and printing, so they can be included in your book (link addresses are shown below).
