Ray --

You might be interested in knowing that I once attempted a collaboration
with the late Dick Picker on just such a publication (in CNL). Dick
HATED copies and fakes with such a vengeance that he would not even look
at numerous photos that I mailed to him. He refused to even attribute
fakes by die variety for me so that I could publish them, as fakes, in CNL.

Hey All,<O></O>
<O></O>
I thought I’d shoot and
post some recent acquisitions.<O></O>
<O></O>
This first is what I
thought was a very neat copy of a NE Shilling struck in copper. I have
made the following observations so far.<O></O>
<ol type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal">It is struck in copper<O></O>
</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">The punches I have never
seen before.<O></O> </li>

N is most unusual.<O></O> </li>
<li class="MsoNormal">The punch engravers
scratch protruding from the back of the middle crossbar of the E is

<li class="MsoNormal">I have yet to weigh or

Has anyone seen this
