Thanks to Jim Wells' persistence in contacting AOL support, our issues with AOL subscribers not receiving their issues may have been resolved. Hear, hear! A few AOL subscribers have already reported that one of their earlier issues has appeared in their inbox.

This week I'm mailing the issue normally, and hopefully our AOL readers will receive it normally as well. If you're one of the folks I've been in touch with about this, please let me know if your issue arrives. If all is well I won't respond, since I've been overwhelmed with AOL-related messages in recent weeks.

No new subscribers this week.We have 1,661 email subscribers, plus 240 followers on Facebook.

TAKE NOTE:Due to a family vacation, next week's issue will be published early, and the following issue may be skipped.

This week we open with updates from numismatic booksellers Kolbe & Fanning and Lake Books, followed by word on FIVE new books.

Other topics include CSNS author grants, the numismatics of Mrs. O'Leary's cow, headline coin exhibits, CIA medals, and shipwreck finds.

To learn more about Vermontensium Pillarium, an update to Attinelli, the Mickley 1804 dollar, Packard, Kentucky scrip, and Dr. Roper's 1793 Chain Cent, read on. Have a great week, everyone!
