After December 31, 2010, copies of George Fuld's The Washington Pattern Coinage of Peter Getz will no longer be available for sale at the publication price.

This new standard work comprises a meticulous census of all specimens known, accompanied by pedigrees, auction records, weights, diameters, condition, detailed descriptions, and other pertinent data. Copies were produced on a high quality laser printer and feature full-color enlargements of virtually all of the pieces described. Also included is a discussion of the real status of Baker 23, the unique Getz Large Eagle pattern. In addition, the story of the Washington ladle, which has a silver 1797 Getz Masonic medal, Baker 288, in its bowl, is documented for the first time in numismatic circles.

Until December 31, 2010, copies may be ordered from George Frederick Kolbe, P. O. Box 3100, Crestline, CA 92325-3100. Tel: (909) 338-6527; email: GFK@numislit.com.
