<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DrDarryl, post: 2916745, member: 39402&quot;]In researching Bureau of the Mint&nbsp; operations from 1958 through 1962 (I limited this period specifically for an ongoing writing project), it can be concluded that the Bureau of the Mint operated with a manufacturing triad. (Source: Director of the Mint Annual Reports from 1958 - 1962)</p><p><br /></p><p>This manufacturing triad is ideal in explaining U.S. numismatics to those focused on&nbsp; the result from a single manufacturing function (e.g. coins for commerce). When you look-up the definition of numismatics, it does not specify &quot;coins only&quot; nor does it specify particular year(s) nor identify specific metal(s) nor does it specify particular design(s). </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]705379[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]705380[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The red text just revealed a research growth area in U.S. numismatics that has been asleep for over a half-century. </p><p><br /></p><p>U.S. numismatics is not dying.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
