JOHN REICH JOURNAL UPDATED ON NEWMAN PORTAL

Here's another Newman Numismatic Portal update from Project Coordinator Len Augsburger. Thanks. -Editor

JRJournalvol25no1April2015whole75_0000 The John Reich Collectors Society has opened for access the John Reich Journals for 2015 and 2016, updating the run of this periodical on Newman Portal from 1986-2016. The Journal, edited by Brad Karoleff, is published 3 times annually and covers all aspects of Bust coinage, everything from die varieties to coverage of the latest auction sales.

The December 2016 issue features an article by Young Numismatist Garrett Ziss discussing literature purchases at the 2016 ANA Summer Seminar book sale. Included in Garrett's group was a deluxe copy of the Beistle half dollar variety reference, ex. Lester Merkin, a draft of a late-date large cent attribution guide sent from Jules Reiver to Armand Champa, and a copy of the Merkin auction sale catalog for September 1968 including significant bust coinage. All in all a nice group from the book sale.

The April 2015 issue features an important article by David Finkelstein discussing the workflow for handling gold and silver in the U.S. Mint in the 1793-1794 period. Several impediments prevented the coining of bullion in this period and Finkelstein's research is a well-researched overview.

Other organizations wishing to similarly update their back issues on Newman Portal should contact Len Augsburger at leonard.augsburger@wustl.edu.
