"I saw this in the latest catalog from the venerable Reese rare booksellers in New Haven - a letter from Benjamin West mentioning designs he has done for new British coinage ca. 1798. (no. 30 in their catalog)."
Thank you! Can anyone provide more background on American artist West's work on British coinage?
