Articles List
This first article is quite long, and is still incomplete, but it deals with my specialty of Pre-1917 United States Proof coinage:
Collecting Classic Proof Coins of the 1817 to 1916 Era
The rest of these articles are ones that I wrote for our Anchorage Coin Club's newsletter, ACCent. Unfortunately, about 30 of my older articles from the mid-1990's through Summer 2001 have been lost to cyber oblivion, and only exist in printed form. The articles that I do have are dated from July 2001 to present and are listed by issue date and name of the article. Some articles are out of date, but I left them here just for fun. Enjoy!
