FANNING SECOND FIXED PRICE LIST PUBLISHED
David F. Fanning writes: "I have published my second fixed
price list of numismatic literature. The catalogue features
important 19th-century U.S. material, much of it from the
library of Dr. Joel J. Orosz. Rarities include a copy of the
first article on a numismatic subject ever published in the United
States (James Mease, 1821); the first article specifically on
U.S. coins ever published in the United States (Mease again,
1838); and the first article on U.S. numismatic literature
(William S.F. Mayers, writing in Norton's Literary Letter,
1859).The fixed price list also includes runs of the Historical Magazine,
Frossard's Numisma and various other publications. Nineteenth-
century numismatic auction catalogues and reference works are
included, including early works by Augustus B. Sage and John
K. Curtis and sales by W. Elliot Woodward. The free
catalogue is available in hard copy (limited quantities) or in PDF
format and can be requested from David Fanning at
