<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4957789, member: 66"]Clubs that have have their publications posted on the portal typically don't include the most recent issues, the whole idea being to have people join the organization rather than just get the publications for free on the portal. I am sure that at some point in the future more editions will be posted, but probably not closer than about three year to the present years issues. The 2020 issues are probably a special case.

So at the time the half dismes were struck the chief coiner was legally required to have posted a bond which was not yet posted. So the "coins" could not have been legally issued. On the other hand if you consider them to be private tokens made for Jefferson, there isn't a problem.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

I agree that 1,500 pieces is too large for it to have been a pattern, and the fact that Jefferson supplied the silver and they were all turned over to him also argues against that. I also agree that Washington had the authority under the Mint act of March 3, 1791 to appoint the chief coiner, as the office was vacant (and no chief coiner no bond), but as soon as Voight was appointed to the office it was no longer vacant and now the Act of April 2, 1792 would apply and now a bond WAS required.
