LINCOLN IN NUMISMATICS

Tom Kays writes: "Abraham Lincoln would have been 199
years old last Tuesday, February 12th.  On this Presidents
Day how ready are you for Lincoln's bicentennial?  Do you
have enough Lincolniana to suit?   Now might be a good time
to review your holdings and fill your holes regarding
Lincoln before the rush. To what heights will Lincoln
"Centennial Cents" of 1909 be elevated by the public next
year as new cent designs debut?

"Extensive references to new Lincoln scholarship and
trivia are periodically gathered by the Abraham Lincoln
Association (ALA).  Readers are invited to try their
luck digging for Lincoln numismatic, token and medal
content with salient search words.  See the ALA keyword
searchable website (year 2000) at
Full Story "

[In my library I have a copy of the 1966 TAMS reprint
of articles on 'Lincoln in Numismatics' by Robert P.
King, originally published in The Numismatist between
1924 and 1933.  I'll look forward to Fred Reed's new
book in Lincoln images. -Editor]
