Hi All,
I just received the Spring 2004 Newsletter in the mail today and had a chance to quickly scan it. After the index and officer listings comes My favorite part of every newsletter, the President's Message. It's a well written, brief, insightful view of C4 and the hobby. All kidding aside, I've never read any of my president's messages after I've submitted them to Syd. I actually would prefer if we had an editorial like Harry Salyards does for Penny Wise. He is truly insightful and has unbiased views.
Phil Mossman gave his commentary on Wayne Shelby's article about the coins he found in NJ. That article was in the Winter issue of the newsletter. The comments were very well thought out.
Brian Danforth wrote an article about the "MA Penny", quoting contemporary articles and really makes one think about condemning these pieces as all being counterfeits or forgeries.
Marc Mayhugh wrote an article about two proposals Walter Mould made for coinage contracts. The proposals are transcribed, and I wonder which fort Mould had in mind for the coinage operation... Good article!
Tim Martin wrote an article about Numismatics and Copyrights. I'll have to read through it a couple more times. I have difficulties reading legal information and comprehending it. What I did comprehend is that things that may appear to be your intellectual property, may not be. The article makes you aware of situations, but also makes you aware that there is much you don't know about copyrights and ownership.
The editor included two clippings from July 1737 newspapers where there were two separate discoveries of buried treasure where thousands of MA Silver coins were involved in each discovery. Makes one want to go out and dig up their back yard!!!
Roger Moore wrote an article about a cast VA Halfpenny he obtained from ebay. One wonders why one would want to make a cast forgery of a VA Halfpenny... Interesting views by Roger.
Then there was a picture of Rob Retz receiving the ANA President's Award at the Portland Oregon Show in March. The Newsletter was at the printers when we heard of Rob's passing, so no note of it is in this issue.
Jim Rosen has had the publication procedures outlined starting on page 32. Manuscripts are presented for possible publication in many forms. This procedure will guide an author through the steps to get his work to print. C4 wants to make it as easy as possible to get researcher's works to print. We should probably have these procedures posted on the C4 web site.
Lastly, Leo Shane listed the new donations to the C4 Library. Leo's doing a great job! A full listing of the library is on our web site.
Let me congratulate the editors for another fine job, and I'd like to thank the four companies who help defray the newsletter cost through the purchase of full page ads: alphabetically: American Numismatic Rarities, Bowers & Merena Galleries, Coin rarities and Stack's.
Back to work...
Ray
