John Frost Speaks on 20-Cent Pieces

Recently added to Newman Portal is a video of the Liberty Seated Collectors Club (LSCC) Zoom meeting held May 11. Most clubs are seeing increased meeting attendance with virtual formats, and the LSCC is no exception, drawing over fifty attendees to this meeting. With one-click recording, the preservation of this content is simple, and LSCC has elected to share meeting videos externally. This event featured John Frost speaking on 20-cent pieces, all the way from the related legislation to the cataloging and collectability of interesting varieties. Frost, and Lane Brunner, are the authors of the standard work on the series, Double Dimes: The United States Twenty-cent Piece. Their research is freely available on their website, and hardcopies are also offered for sale.Link to Liberty Seated Collectors Club video content on Newman Portal: https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/multimediadetail/516987Link to John Frost and Lane Brunner's Double Dimes website: http://www.doubledimes.com
