MEDAL DIES OF A PUBLIC CHARACTER
Regarding the 1862 U.S. Mint pricelist discussed last week,
Rich Hartzog writes: "Interesting! May I inquire if any of the
Indian Peace medals were available in silver?Thanks! The E-Sylum is 'must' reading. I may just have to
break down and join NBS..."[Please do! NBS is far more than just The E-Sylum. Only
members receive our quarterly print journal, the Asylum. NBS
also sponsors meetings and literature symposia at major coin
shows around the U.S. If you like The E-Sylum, you'll love
the in-depth articles and talks your NBS membership supports.
I welcome all non-member E-Sylum readers to consider making
NBS your New Year's resolution for 2004. Membership is only
$15 per year to North American addresses, and $20 elsewhere.
As always, information on joining NBS may be found at the end
of this email message. -Editor]Jan Monroe writes: "I am also very interested in getting a copy
of the 1862 Mint price list. This list may shed some light on the
silver medals available to the public. I would think it worth
publishing in the Asylum."[Here are the silver medals offered in the pricelist:
