  • Highest Honor Awards Given to Numismatists Making a Difference
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Friday, July 27, 2018 CONTACT: Amanda Miller Telephone: 719-482-9871 E-mail: [email protected] Highest Honor Awards Given to Numismatists Making a Difference The American Numismatic Association (ANA) is recognizing several numismatists who not only lead by example, but pave new pathways within the numismatic hobby. Recognized for their dedication, hard work, passion and contributions, these recipients will be recognized at the World’s Fair of MoneyⓇ in Philadelphia, Aug. 14-18. Those being recognized are: Cindy Wibker for the Farran Zerbe Memorial Award for Distinguished Service David J. McCarthy for Numismatist of the Year Abigail Zechman for the Young Numismatist of the Year Mark Lighterman for the Lifetime Achievement Award The Farran Zerbe Memorial Award for Distinguished Service is the highest honor conferred by the American Numismatic Association. It is given in recognition of numerous years of outstanding, dedicated service to numismatics. Cindy Wibker is the recipient of this year’s award. For 25 years, Wibker has dedicated her career to Florida United Numismatists (FUN) as convention coordinator, organizing one of the premier shows in the country. This is no easy task, as FUN’s annual January show regularly draws an average of 10,000 attendees over four days, and its summer event, held each July, welcomes about 3,000 hobbyists. Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, the young Wibker enjoyed filling Whitman nickel and cent folders with pocket change and acquiring specimens through mail-order businesses. However, her mind turned to other pursuits. Growing up she enjoyed spending time outside playing different sports, going to games, spending time with her family and riding her bike.

T^E little treatise which gives its title to the present volume originated in an application made to me by our Regius Professor of Divinity to point out to him any history of the introduction of Christian types upon the Roman coinage. The only book of that nature to which I was able to refer him was Dr. Walsh's brief essay ' On the Coins, &c, illus- trating the Progress of Christianity in the Early Ages/ published so long ago as 1828 ; and which, so far as I have been able' to ascertain, remains the only work in any language that takes for its ex- clusive subject this truly interesting and fertile province of Numismatics.

    The Back Page The Back Page will look at topics and items of interest , but from not quite THE RIGHT ANGLE. Numismatics – Geeks or Greeks ? There was much excitement at the last Regular Meeting as a young inexperienced Office-bearer brought down the latest addition to his collection. An Alexander 3rd. coin. It was about the size of a five pence piece and was in quite good condition. Everyone had a look and an opinion as to what it was. Then a member of the Lodge who is a well known collector (of everything) was asked for his opinion. There was a hush in the committee room as he adjusted his glasses and looking at it closely up to the light and announced “ it could be Greek”. Everyone was stunned by his encyclopaedic mind, until the young inexperienced Office-bearer exclaimed, Alas, Alas, Alasdair, “ Alexander the third wasn`t Greek !” He then gave a machine gun speed resume of Alexander the third King of Scots from 1249 to 1286 ! Including his victory at the Battle of Largs in 1263! The Collector was ruffled, who was this new young Geek – who knew his Greeks ? was he right that Alexander wasn`t Greek ? The Collector in reply said that there was a Greek called Alexander, who was this Greek ? was he a Geek ? ..... Darts. Sharpen your tips ……. The Big Contest is back …….
