Newman Portal Celebrates Tenth Anniversary

The Newman Portal project was launched on December 1, 2014 at Washington University in St. Louis, making today its tenth anniversary. Not uncoincidentally, the Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society, which sponsors NNP, was incorporated as a not-for-profit corporation in Missouri on December 1, 1958, making today its 66th anniversary. Scanning at Washington University began in July 2015, with the first document scanned being an example of Heath's Counterfeit Detector (catalogued as 2-P-s-Special) , from the Newman collection. The NNP side went live in 2016, and the Newman Portal has since added over 80,000 documents to the collection, representing a wide array of auction sale catalogs, periodicals, reference works, and archival materials. We're not stopping there! We continue to make daily additions from our scanning lab in St. Louis, the American Numismatic Society, the S&S Library, and from a host of community contributors.
