SWEET! In CoinWorld? Nice... That's hard work. And an incredible accomplishment! When will the magazine be available at the bookstores? It should be out by now, right? I will for sure get a copy. Congratulations!
Just read your article in the digital issue. Nice write up and definitely the star of the offerings. I don't suppose I've given the topic much thought, but it made me think of an interaction at the first IMEX show. It was my first big coin show, in 2023 I think. Either way, Ralph Ross, at the time ANA president I believe, came up to a table near me in search of either a Jackie Robinson or Negro Leagues baseball gold coin. I'm pretty sure it was the latter as it had been released the year before. The dealer he was at, who was well stocked with tons of current issues, had none and hadn't had them. From over hearing, Mr. Ross was having a difficult time finding one at the show. I'm not sure he ever did. I thought it odd that an issue less than a year old was so difficult to locate. With coins, I really love the artistry and history behind them. The reverse of the Harriet Tubman dollar is by far one of my favorite designs in recent history. There was also recently an article I read about slave badges, either in CW or the Numismatist I found very interesting. I hope your article is received well and CW invites more!
I'm not seeing it on the website (I'm not a subscriber), but I'll certainly look for it. Congratulations!
