Western Pennsylvania Numismatic Society Papers on Newman Portal

Newman Portal has scanned the presented papers of the Western Pennsylvania Numismatic Society (WPNS), beginning with the year 1937. Many of these were published nowhere else, and a large number of topics are covered. Sample subjects from the first volume include European cathedral medals, Bryan money, Continental currency, and Washington medals. The accumulation of member papers was unusual for most coin clubs during this period and speaks to the level of numismatic practice operative in the WPNS.Link to Western Pennsylvania Numismatic Society papers on Newman Portal: https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/archivedetail/547894
