<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ana Silverbell, post: 4284315, member: 75156&quot;]I meant to put in the original post that according to Duane Spellman,* the nickname &quot;Lonesome John&quot; was given to John Devine because John was the first and only full-time error coin dealer at that time. I understand Spellman and Devine knew each other. My guess is Newbury Park, CA and Canoga Park, CA must be geographically close to each other. Not my part of the country but certainly it was &quot;error coin&quot; country in those years - the 1960s and 1970s.</p><p>______</p><p>*Duane Spellman, RIP, ran The Mint coin shop in Canoga Park, California.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
