Numismatography 101 -- Art Appreciation
« on: January 27, 2010, 11:31:53 AM »


This is one of my finest photos and one my finest tokens.

If you will spend an hour looking it over, you'll learn something about numismatography.

Nu*mis`ma*tog"ra*phy\, n. [L. numisma, -atis (Greek) + -graphy -graphos (Greek.]
A treatise on, or description of, or graphic or photographic image of coins and medals.

I have collected U.S coins for many years, and then Civil War Tokens, but am now actively building a collection of Conder Tokens,
the coins that made the Industrial Revolution a whopping success. : )
