Nnice little begginers article. I'm more interested in the barbers v Morgan article. I'll have to wait to get to my computer to find it though. The rivalry was epic. #TeamMorgan!
There was no love loss between the two, that's for sure...and there was a rivalry between Barber and Adolph Weinman as well...must have taken it's toll on Barber he died in 1917.
Yeah He felt entitled similar to someone in the news today. Thought his family was US mint royalty that would last for centuries. Linderman hated that and thought some new blood was needed. Hello George, hello Morgan dollar and kick rocks Barber boys
