I can't believe it!

I tied for the winner of the David W. Lange Memorial Book of the Year Award for 2025 with the Numismatic Literary Guild.

The awards were announced on August 21st at the ANA convention in Oklahoma City.
I wasn't there since I didn't think I'd win anything, of course, so I didn't go. Boy, what a mistake...

I am continuing to update my Korean Coin Price Guide (avail. at ebay) annually.

Doing research for this last book, I noticed that there were several boxes of documents in the U.S. Mint's File on Foreign Coining Contracts. I may explore some of the work or interactions that the Mint had with Japan, Philippines, etc.

Most coin researchers going to the U.S. Archives are doing work related to U.S. coins, so these foreign contracts (lots of African and South American) seem to be unexplored.

The Foreign Contracts documents are in Record Group 104, Entry 328-F at the Archives.
