  • Benjamin Franklin (10 Vols., New York, 1905- 7), 5:167
    The American Aesthetic of Franklin's Visual Creations ENJAMIN FRANKLIN'S VISUAL CREATIONS—his cartoons, designs for flags and paper money, emblems and devices— Breveal an underlying American aesthetic, i.e., an egalitarian and nationalistic impulse. Although these implications may be dis- cerned in a number of his visual creations, I will restrict this essay to four: first, the cartoon of Hercules and the Wagoneer that appeared in Franklin's pamphlet Plain Truth in 1747; second, the flags of the Associator companies of December 1747; third, the cut-snake cartoon of May 1754; and fourth, his designs for the first United States Continental currency in 1775 and 1776. These four devices or groups of devices afford a reasonable basis for generalizations concerning Franklin's visual creations. And since the conclusions shed light upon Franklin's notorious comments comparing the eagle as the emblem of the United States to the turkey ("a much more respectable bird and withal a true original Native of America"),1 I will discuss that opinion in an appendix. My premise (which will only be partially proven during the fol- lowing discussion) is that Franklin was an extraordinarily knowl- edgeable student of visual symbols, devices, and heraldry. Almost all eighteenth-century British and American printers used ornaments and illustrations. Many printers, including Franklin, made their own woodcuts and carefully designed the visual appearance of their broad- sides, newspapers, pamphlets, and books. Franklin's uses of the visual arts are distinguished from those of other colonial printers by his artistic creativity and by his interest in and scholarly knowledge of the general subject.

    A picture gallery of U.S. colonial coins and tokens Prior to the establishment of the U.S. Mint in 1792, several of the original colonies and states made their own coins, or in some cases coins or tokens were made elsewhere (usually in Eng- land, Ireland or France) for use in the American colonies. There are also some post-1792 private issues, oen depicng George Washington, that are considered part of the U.S. colonial coin series. For more informaon, see A Guide Book of United States Coins (“Red Book”). Collecng colonial coins is more popular “back east,” but there are a few Pacific Northwest col- lectors who have built collecons of colonials, and there is an annual meeng of the Colonial Coin Collectors Club (C4) at the annual PNNA spring convenon. “The Colonial Era” introducon on the next page was originally wrien for a C4 display at an ANA show in the Northwest. The coins and tokens pictured in this gallery are from a local collecon that was sold, with the excepon that the Fugio Cent was from a different private collecon. Enjoy!

  • Chapter One the History of Coins
    15 CHAPTER ONE THE HISTORY OF COINS Regardless of their size, shape or value, regardless of the society, culture or era which spawned them, coins maintain an importance beyond their primary func- tion in commerce; they are the record and bearer of all of man’s history. They may be collected as historical objects, fine art, or struck to commemorate special events and occasions. As popular objects of intrinsic worth, coins have been hoarded in times of economic, political instability and particularly during wartime. Most significantly, quality rare coins have always increased in value: from virtually their inception to the present — with true historical monotonousness — coins have remained a good investment as well as the backbone of commerce. History, we have learned, repeats itself; and the history of coins does not disprove this maxim. To cover thousands of years of history very briefly: coins were first devised to fill the need for an unwavering scale of value. Prior to their existence, men were compelled to decide an exchange rate for each new trade. How much food for a pitcher of water? How many slaves for a wife? It was necessary, if cumbersome, for a trader to carry everything he might conceivably want to swap. Such was life under the barter economy. Life changed dramatically, however, with the appearance of money: a standard item of trade, against which every- thing of value might be measured. Initially, this did not mean coins. Shells, ani- mals, slaves, beads, salt, grain — all served as standards of exchange at different times and places. Certain commodities, among them cattle, and such useful implements as axes and knives, derived part of their value from the prestige asso- ciated with their ownership.
