NUMISMATIC SPELLING BEE
Your editor participated in an interesting program hosted by
Sam Deep at the June meeting of the Pittsburgh Numismatic
Society - a numismatic spelling bee. A tough list of 25 words
(including Antoninianus, Brachteate, Disme, Exergue and
Scyphate) whittled down the field. I managed to come in tied
for first place with 21 of 25. A tense spell-off followed, and
I held on to win by correctly spelling kreuzer, fleur de lis, and
spielmarke. Whew! Stu Strickland was the 2nd place finisher.
But if anything is misspelled in The E-Sylum, I'll blame it on
the spell-check program...- 2002-07-07
