I have changed the subject line to continue this discussion John Lupia=20
and others have begun. I have an expansive view of what I consider=20
Colonial related. That is, I start with every thing in the Red Book=20
section then go to foreign coins circulating in the colonies. I collect=20
British from George the third back, French of the period, Spanish=20
Colonial, and any thing else with a remote chance to have circulated.=20
From there I collect Hawaiian coinage and I even have a set of=20
Alaskan "Bingles." The Red Book says "These tokens were issued by the=20
U.S. Government for for the use of the colonists of the Matanuska=20
Valley Colonization Project" that's close enough to Colonial for me.
