The E-Sylum: Volume 8, Number 6, February 6, 2005, Article 28 ON COUNTING THE NUMBER OF U.S. COINS Saul Teichman writes: "With regard to the completeness of the Eliasberg collection, it was missing some more relatively common items such as an 1839 type 2 eagle and, if I remember correctly, one of the 1866-S twenty dollars was actually added for the sale. There is no question, however, that the Eliasberg collection was the finest both in grade and in completeness for a U.S. collection ever formed. The question is should he or the Clapp family get more of the credit !!" Dick Johnson writes: "C’on Mark Borckardt, you set up an Excel spreadsheet and listed all the U.S. coins including die varieties and patterns. You say this totals "about 10,000 entries." That’s not very specific to answer the question of total number. Please give us a more specific number. I wonder if you have over 8,000 entries [650 above Breen’s total]. If you do, this should be published, perhaps in checklist form." Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
