WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM OCTOBER 16, 2016New subscribers this week include: Jason Hoffpauir. Welcome aboard! We now have 2,026 subscribers. This week we open with a sale reminder from Kolbe & Fanning, a review of the new Medallic Washington book, an interview with literature dealer David Fanning, and the latest addition to the Newman Numismatic Portal. Would Canada ever drop its tradition of depicting the reigning British monarch? What's next for the U.S. Mint? Will the half dollar make a comeback? Will the cent and nickel disappear? Will cash itself disappear altogether? We have several future-looking articles for your consideration this week. Other topics this week include shroff marks, coin shop tales, Lord Ashcroft's latest Victoria Cross, the Bank of England's Chief Cashier Victoria Cleland, Germany's social welfare notes, and a 1942 experimental pattern in glass. To learn more about congruent mass, William Spohn Baker, C. Elizabeth W. Osmun, Adison Smith, Harley Freeman, Joe Foster, the institutional memory of the numismatic hobby, a waffled 1931 French Indo-China Piastre, the Lord Anson Medal, and the Hobby Protection Act, read on.
