tabbs Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Got the latest issue of "prägefrisch.de" today. That is the quarterly magazine of the German Numismatic Office. The cover story is about the Dresden coin which will be issued in August. Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Yesterday I received my signed copy of Roger Burdette's "Renaissance of American Coinage." I've only breezed through the pictures so far but this book seems like a fantastic work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Yesterday I received my signed copy of Roger Burdette's "Renaissance of American Coinage." I've only breezed through the pictures so far but this book seems like a fantastic work! I've heard good things about this book. There are two different versions, if I've been told correctly. If so, which do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I hadn't heard about the two versions, mine is the one that covers 1905-08, the only other version I've heard of was one that covered the minor denomination coins of the teens, but I am not sure that's out yet. Roger Burdette is a member of the NGC forums (RWB is his ID) and I just PM'ed him and he told me how to order it. Many fascinating things, unfortunately I have so little time and about 12 books on my reading list for the summer! I did a google search and found this info: Renaissance of American Coinage 1905-1908 is the second of three books exploring the coinage redesign of 1907-1921. A companion volume covering the 1916-1921 period (ISBN 0-9768986-0-8, available from the publisher.) was released in October 2005, and a third volume covering 1909-1915 is planned for release in 2007. The book is available direct from Seneca Mill Press LLC, PO Box 1423, Great Falls VA 22066 for $64.95 plus $4.50 postage If you would like a signed copy, just contact Roger through the NGC board and you can request one that is personalized or just signed at no extra cost (you can also just include a note requesting it be signed when you mail in your order).

jtryka Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 The mailman was good to me last week! This first one I got in a trade with Vfox (so it's mine as long as he likes the Mexican coins I sent him!). I believe it's an O-102 or O-102a, but I am having a hard time with some of the details to attribute it with certainty. This next one just arrived today for my type set, and no it does not have an S mintmark on the reverse! These small coins are really hard to photograph in NGC slabs! And this one is just another hole filler in my set, so I figured I'd pick it up while prices are down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtryka Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Vfox, I am sure Marvin will be happy to trade German coins with those crazy eagles for American coins on his want list (and it's a pretty long want list!). I don't know what it is, but these German coins are starting to grow on me a little! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
