  [The first article is a good overview of Perkins'
  career, and notes: "Newburyport was host to the first state
  mint. The brick building in which the commonwealth's
  currency was printed still exists today at the rear of 14 Fruit
  Street, directly on the property line of The Historical
  Society of Old Newbury.
  

  The second article opens: "A local lawyer wants to make an
  apartment out of a historic building that housed the state's
  earliest mint, and if the city says he can't, he intends to
  tear it down."
