Steve, I just received the new book I purchased, "The Copper Coinage of the St= ate of New Jersey". It is the annotated manuscript of Damon Douglas edited= by Gary Trutgen. I highly recommend it! Book info is attached. But along= with the book came two lengthy catalogs for books on various topics. Ther= e is a book your friend might be interested in:
Severed Heads: British Beheadings Through the Ages by Geoffrey Abbott For many, the highlight of a guided tour of the Tower of London is Tower Gr= een, the site of the scaffolds on which Anne Boleyn, Lady Jane Grey and man= y others, before and after, met their end. This book, written by a retired = Yeoman Warder from the Tower, presents a morbid but entertaining anthology = of one hundred of the thousands of men and women who fell victim to the axe= or sword (or the Halifax Gibbet or the Scottish Maiden). The entries, arra= nged chronologically, also look at the victims' alleged crimes, any last wo= rds and the disposal of the body and head, often on spikes on London Bridge= . A closing index lists each victim, identifying the type of blade that fin= ished them off. The author clearly enjoys uncovering little known facts and= anecdotes and this book captures his enthusiasm. 244p, 16 b/w pls (Andr=E9= Deutsch 2000, Pb 2003)
ISBN 0233051279. Paperback. Price US $14.95=20 This is sold by Oxbow Books http://www.oxbowbooks.com/bookinfo.cfm/ID/3611= 4
Steve, It's my understanding that counterfeiting paper, silver or gold would s= ent you to Old Bailey, BUT counterfeiting copper coins was not a capital of= fense and just prison time or possible disfiguration was the penalty. It w= ould be interesting to see if any accounts of counterfeiters being executed= are contained in this book Ray W
