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.
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.
A collection created by Internet Archive to separate bound resources from archival folders being digitized at the American Numismatic Society Library.

The Eliasberg Collection has long stood as the pinnacle of privately-held US coin collections. With the advent of the Set Registry, a new challenger emerged with the goal to not only add over 50 years to the collection, but to eclipse it in terms of condition. This is DLRC's story of how it has worked with the D.L. Hansen Collection and the quest for the greatest collection of US coins.

This presentation will shine some light onto the clouded history of the Medallic Art Co. (MACO) between 1902 to 1920. These "early years" follow the firm as it grew from a side project for an employee at a ladies handbag company, tell how bitter legal struggles almost left the young company bankrupt, and show that the foresight of a young entrepreneur transformed the firm into one of the most important producers of 20th-century medallic art in the United States.

It then discusses the emergence of Liberty Seated coin images on scrip notes during the Hard Times period and also highlights their later presence on state bank notes. The final section...
