The American Numismatic Society is an organization dedicated to the study of coins, currency, medals, tokens, and related objects from all cultures, past and present. The Society's headquarters in New York City has the foremost research collection and library specialized in numismatics in the United States. These resources are used to support research and education in numismatics, for the benefit of academic specialists, serious collectors, professional numismatists, and the interested public.
A collection created by Internet Archive to separate bound resources from archival folders being digitized at the American Numismatic Society Library.
Eric P. Newman, numismatic scholar, was born in St. Louis in 1911. The Newman archives include papers from the estate of Burdette G. Johnson, a St. Louis dealer active in the first half of the 20th century. Newman further maintained personal correspondence files with hundreds of individuals beginning in the 1930s and extending into the 2010s. Newman also created research files on a variety of topics with particular focus on the pre-Federal era numismatics.

The numismatics collection at Yale dates to the early 19th century and has had a long but often unrecognized history. Many renowned scholars have worked with and studied the collection, which also contains many publicly unknown rarities, even to this day. It is the largest numismatic collection at any American university though has had little opportunity for public display and exhibition until recently. In May 2022, for the first time ever, a specially designed and dedicated gallery to...

And this Handbook - replacing his first version with an entirely new revision - is among his most important gifts. Somehow, Mel has managed to provide a work that is succinct without being superficial; that summarizes all the important material rather than limiting coverage through exclusion; and that simplifies complicated issues without...
