  • Minting America: Coinage and the Contestation of American Identity, 1775-1800
    ABSTRACT MINTING AMERICA: COINAGE AND THE CONTESTATION OF AMERICAN IDENTITY, 1775-1800 by James Patrick Ambuske “Minting America” investigates the ideological and culture links between American identity and national coinage in the wake of the American Revolution. In the Confederation period and in the Early Republic, Americans contested the creation of a national mint to produce coins. The catastrophic failure of the paper money issued by the Continental Congress during the War for Independence inspired an ideological debate in which Americans considered the broader implications of a national coinage. More than a means to conduct commerce, many citizens of the new nation saw coins as tangible representations of sovereignty and as a mechanism to convey the principles of the Revolution to future generations. They contested the physical symbolism as well as the rhetorical iconology of these early national coins. Debating the stories that coinage told helped Americans in this period shape the contours of a national identity.

We will have the usual business meeting, show and tell, raffle, member prize drawing and auction. Coin Lore In God We Trust (Part 2) by Bill Groom Many of the first thirteen states authorized the issue of coins to facilitate trade. The independent state of Vermont issued its own coins from 1785-88. Below is pictured a copper cent, dated 1786. The “Eye of God” appears on the reverse. The phrase “ Stella Quarta Decima ” is Latin, meaning the fourteenth star. The so- called Vermont Republic or Vermontensium Republica , a then independent state, became the fourteenth state to join the Union in 1791. Peeking above the obverse landscape on this Vermont cent are the eyes of God, as He emits rays of light. --1-- The Volunteer Coin Club Newsletter February, 2015 Another state to utilize the “Eye of God” motif was New York. This Nova Constellatio (Latin, meaning new constellation) issue was privately struck in England between 1783-85.
