kiter11 New Member Canada 9 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 8:37 pm Hello all! I was donated a 1921 Peace dollar by my grandmother, who says it was given to her by an uncle who worked at the Philadelphia Mint. Do you know where I could find a list of employees working at the Philadelphia Mint at the time? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

smuglr Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 8:55 pm An easier, more interesting/informative solution, would be to check with family or research on Ancestry and learn who your grandmother's uncles were and what type of work they did. Report this Post to the Staff

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 09:40 am @Dearborn Your link is a completely different topic. Good advice already provided. Only person that I can think of that may know the answer would be Conder101. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 1:57 pm There is a wealth of stuff at Newman Numismatic Portal here https://nnp.wustl.edu/Library/Archi...archLetter=U Unfortunately you'll have to wade through mint letters etc looking for employee records - people hired, fired, logs of hours worked, pay raises, stuff like that. However, I have only been interested in stuff around 1900 and I think a lot of it after 1901 was lost or destroyed, so I'm not sure if there's anything from around 1921. Might be worth a look.

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 1:11 pm findagrave might be useful too, if you're trying to figure out what the uncle's name was. They show parents, siblings and children in addition to grave locations. It's free and some of their records show an occupation. Report this Post to the Staff
dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 11:28 am I think we have some genealogists here too! I've been a contributing member of findagrave for around 20 years. Yes, it's a great site to find folks!!! Report this Post to the Staff
