The Red Book Index Gremlins Strike!
Tom Sheehan writes:

We've removed the Libertas Americana medal from the 76th edition of the Red Book. As for its loitering presence in the index? That's the numismatic-publishing equivalent of the gremlins that used to make mischief in Royal Air Force machinery!

Here's some background on the Libertas Americana medal and the Red Book:

We introduced the medal in the 2008 (61st) edition, published in 2007.

We gave it the approximate half-page of space previously granted to which itself was introduced in the extensive redesign of the 2006 (59th) edition, published in 2005. That essay served as a kind of entry-ramp from the (pre-federal) issues to the regular federal issues that make up the bulk of the book.

This year we decided that, with last year's publication of the 75th edition, the Libertas Americana medal has had a good long run, appearing in 15 editions of the Red Book. We redistributed its half-page of space to beef up the section with additional information (in particular, giving a bit more narrative text to the 1792 proposed coinage).

If Mr. Sheehan sends me his mailing address, he'll get a rare and delightful prize for being a keen-eyed (and fast!) Red Book reader.
