Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Numismatics of Massachusetts It will be noted that I have made no attempt to subdivide the pieces into store cards, hard-times tokens, medals, etc., as do most numismatists, which only leads to endless confusion; but have grouped everything, except the personal medals, un der the respective towns or cities, in the first place alphabeti cally and then, in the case of the dated pieces, chronologically. This system seems to be more suitable to a catalogue not compiled primarily for experts. A full index will guide those who consult the list.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Coinage of Connecticut; State Coinage of Vermont; State Coinage of Massachusetts The coins of Connecticut vary greatly in weight. Specimens are found weighing not more than 108 grains, while others range from 168 to 184 grains. In some cases the lighter coins are probably counterfeits of the time, but many of light weight, undoubtedly authentic, are from the same dies as the heavier ones.

This book was released on 2018-09-26 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Coins, Tokens, and Medals in the Numismatic Collection of the Mint of the United States at Philadelphia, Pa With the view of relieving to some extent the money stringency oi the colony, Massachusetts in 1651 projected a mint for the coinage of silver. Preliminary arrangements were speedily made, and in the following year the mint was opened at Boston and began operations by striking the almost plain New England Shilling (pl. 1, the Sixpence and Threepence. The standard of fineness of the new coin was the same as the correspond ing English coin. It is very improbable that there was any intention to continue long such a simple form of coin as this piece is, being in fact but little more than a plain disk. For it must have been apparent at once that the coins could be easily clid and also fraudulently washed until their weight and value were seriously reduced. It is very likely that the exceedingly simple form of the first issue was the result of great haste to get the mint into operation, and that the preparation of other and more suitable dies was begun at once on the opening of the mint, and that they were put into use as soon as completed. At any rate, in the same year of 1652, the series with a tree on the obverse and on the reverse N EW eng lan D ano. With the date and value within a beaded circle, was begun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Numismatic Chronicle, Vol. 1 Almost all collectors of Anglo-Saxon coins have been dissatisfied with the position, which has been assigned to certain coins, which are ascribed to Egberth, king of Kent: all collectors have felt that Kent was not their proper locality, but that they ought properly to find a home in the North. I am not aware that any attempt has been made to locate them in that part of the world; but I fancy that I have discovered the time and place of their birth, and shall state my views, without further preface, for the amusement, and perhaps instruction of my brother numismatists. At pages 18 and 78 of the first volume of the Numismatic Journal, are given woodcuts of two coins, both of which (the coins, though not the cuts) read alike, and must be assigned to Aldfrith, who was king of Northumberland, from 685 to 705. In 737, Eadbert ascended the Northumbrian throne, and retained his power till 758. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book William Summer Appleton Classic Reprint written by William Theophilus Rogers Marvin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Summer Appleton His disquisition on A Uniform Coinage, which was the title of his Commencement part, and the fact that he was one of the founders of the Boston Numismatic Society in the year that he graduated, that he served it as its Secretary until his death, to gether with his constant and regular attendance at its meetings for over forty years, except when abroad, and his letters to its member ship while on the Continent, show how deep and genuine was his interest in this department of his three favorite studies Numisma tics, Heraldry and Genealogy. Indeed before he entered college he had begun the collection of the cabinet which, to the very close of his life, was an unfailing source of pleasure, and which it is earnestly to be hoped may be preserved intact as a monument to his memory. He was unceasing in his efforts to complete his series of coins and medals having reference to events in American history, and there are those who will recall his delight when he informed a few sym pathetic friends of his success in obtaining originals of the rare Os wego medal, and the still rarer Diplomatic Medal, for which he had long been watching, and which he exhibited and described at a meeting of the Massachusetts Historical Society in the winter of 1894, and to his associates in the N umismatic Society.
