We had no new books to report last week, an unusual occurrence lately. But not this time. This week we open with FOUR new books (that's great!), FOUR obituaries (that's not so good), updates from the Newman Numismatic Portal, and more.

Other topics this week include Canadian coins, the numismatic of Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Spanish Caribbean, Chinese transportation tokens, Paramount International Coin Corporation, making dies for elongated coins, the English Civil War, the 1893 Grant Reunion, Justinian the Great, coin finds, and U.S. Mint Oath of Allegiance medals.

To learn more about the London Mint of Constantius and Constantine, Max Humbert, Congressional Reports with numismatic content, starting Teletrade, a numismatic earworm, the Cope Collection, the American who earned a Canadian Victoria Cross, the Rosie the Riveter Congressional Gold Medal, and Nigerian banknote abuse, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
