Thanks Steve, I've printed/saved those pictures for my file, which I'm starting. Ray ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Frank To: colonial-coins@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2003 6:46 PM Subject: Re: [Colonial Numismatics] Re: Washington Funeral Medals Question
Hi Ray, I just did a quick search on the net and found a couple things....you must remember this first part..and the second two are links you may find interesteing. The first dates back to the same time of year in 2000....back when it was a lot easier to read the daily paper.....I'm new to this group so do not know people...but Chris and Dawn Stevens were involved here...as Chris was doing some research in the area....it's ironic I see his name here again .
WASHINGTON FUNERAL MEDAL INFO FOUND
Over on the colonial coin collectors forum, Chris Stevens wrote about some research he's doing on Jacob Perkins.: In reading 18th century issues of The Essex Journal "I also stumbled upon a number of interesting things. One being the original ads run by Perkins for the sale of the Washington Funeral medals. In an add on the front page of the E.J., Perkins states (exaggerates?) that bulk inquiries are welcome, and he has ability to execute 3-5 thousand pieces daily!"
The ad appeared in the Jan 10, 1800 issue; here's the full text, from a picture published on the forum's web site:
Jacob Perkins Takes leave to inform the pub- lic that he will now be able to answer orders for the Medals in memory of the late illustrious Gen. WASHINGTON, from any part of the continent, and to any a mount, executed on Gold, Silver, or White Metal, with punctuality and dispatch -- from 3 to 5 thousand can be made daily.
A liberal discount will be made to those who purchase quantities to sell again.
