  TOBACCO COLONIES COINAGE
  

  Colonial Newsletter editor Phil Mossman writes: "Issue #116
  [April 2001] of The Colonial Newsletter has been distributed
  to subscribers. This number features an extensive study by
  Thomas A. Kays of Alexandria, Virginia, on Spanish pistareens
  uncovered in hoards and by metal detectors within the
  "Tobacco Colonies." He has gathered a study collection of
  199 examples of either cut or whole coins which he analyzes
  in detail in his 30-page article. This work is a valuable
  resource for those interested in 18th century Spanish coins
  and in the money of pre-Federal America. He emphasizes
  the fact that pistareens and their fractional and cut parts
  formed an important segment of early American currency
  and as such deserve to be included in collections spanning
  that time frame."
