SOME THOUGHTS ON THE WELLS PAPER Wyatt Wells redirects our attention to the “battle of the standards,” the central issue of the 1896 Bryan-McKinley campaign but with roots going back to the Civil War and Recon- struction. He contrasts opposing sides, labeled “goldbugs” and “silverites.” Often these labels identify Republicans on one side, Democrats and Populists on the other. Goldbugs concentrated in the Northeast, silverites in the South and West. Goldbugs included many bankers, merchants (especially in international trade), and bondholders, while silverites were often agrarians—not only farmers but rural businesspeople who shared the farmers’ ups and downs. And agrarians, both in where they lived and what they did, were still the majority of the American people during the decades in question. There were exceptions to all of these categorizations, but in general they identify the groups for which “gold- bugs” and “silverites” are surrogate terms. The consistent policies and laws affecting money—from the Public Credit Act of 1869 to the 1893 repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act—effected “persistent deflation” (p. 1). That benefited goldbugs and disadvantaged silverites.1 Whether “urban workers” (p. 10) would have been harmed by moderate inflation is arguable. It might have raised wages more than consumer prices; wages may lag more than prices but could have caught up. Arguable too is the proposition that keeping the silver standard would have ruined foreign investment.

RY HORATIO GATES JONES, Member of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and Corresponding Member of the New England Historical and Genealogical Society, and of the Historical Societies of New York, \Visconsin, &c., &c. PHILADELPHIA: PRINTED FOR THE AUTHOR, BY KING & BAIRD, 607 SANSOM ST. I 8 5 8. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year I 858, by HORATIO GATES JONES, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States, in and for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. PREFACE. As this volume is a Family History, designed chiefly for the descendants of two of the Pioneer settlers of Roxborough, no apology will be offered for its publication. It has its defects, and no doubt contains numerous errors, both as to dates and names, but when it is remembered, that much of the information has been gathered by correspondence with parties at a distance, some from researches among old wills, deeds and tombstones, and the rest from the family traditions and recollection of aged people, the readers, I trust, wiil not be severe in their criticism. In Pennsylvania there is no law for the Registration of Marriages, Births and Deaths. One was passed a few years ago, but it was soon repealed; and it is only in a few of the Churches and Friends' Meetings, that any such records are pre­ served. • Inaccuracies, therefore, in these particulars, especially among the early generations, must be expected.

In inquire about suitable candidates for an assistant engraver. the late nineteenth century, however, when the U. S.

Between 1876 if Morgan left England, but that his arrival would surely be and 1878, the silver dollar was redesigned (Figure 1) by a of great value to the United States, “both officially and as recently-arrived English engraver, George Morgan, and it an artist.”1 Morgan accepted Linderman’s offer of $8 per became the center of several very public controversies—ones day (which, in 2007, works out to about $42,000 in annual that ultimately had at stake more than just aesthetic concerns salary).2 Upon his arrival in Philadelphia, the officials at the about America’s coins.

  • 1804 Large Cent Restrikes in the Same Breath As the 1811 Half Cent and 1823 Large Cent Restrikes, We Must Include the 1804 Large Cent Restrike
    U.S. MINT RE S T R IKE S 1804 Large Cent Restrikes In the same breath as the 1811 Half Cent and 1823 Large Cent restrikes, we must include the 1804 Large Cent restrike. They have in common in that they are all of the working dies are believed to have been created by the Mint, subsequently owned by Joseph Mickley, and struck either inside the Mint clandestinely during different periods after 1858 or struck outside the Mint privately. If they were struck inside the Mint after 1858, there might be some argument that they are legally struck at the Mint. If they were struck privately outside the Mint, then they must be classified as counterfeits. In 1804, a single die pair (Sheldon-266) was used to strike 96,500 Large Cents (During this era, working from the previous year were sometimes used in the beginning of the following year. This mintage reflects the number of coins delivered in a year and could include 1803 Large Cents struck in 1804). In 1803, several dies were used to strike 3,131,691 Large Cents. One of these 1803 Large Cent obverses (Sheldon-261) had an 1804 date punched over the 1803 date and used create the 1804 Large Cent restrikes. This was combined with an 1820 Coronet Head reverse (Newcomb-12). Seen below are a mid-die stage on the left and a late die stage on the right of the 1803 Large Cent (Sheldon-261). Notice that no rust is seen on the obverse and that the late die stage has a semicircular die crack from 6 to 9 o'clock such as seen on the 1804 Large Cent restrike.

  • George T. Morgan by Jeff Garrett
    George T. Morgan by Jeff Garrett In 1845, George T. Morgan was born in Bilston, Staffordshire, England. During his adolescence and early adulthood, he was educated at the Birmingham Art School, and then was granted a national scholarship to the South Kensington Art School. He continued his education at the South Kensington School for two years where he received numerous awards and prizes. While in England, Morgan was employed by the British Royal Mint in London under J.S. and A.B. Wyon, a family that had produced generations of engravers for the Tower Mint. Morgan was greatly respected in his position as an assistant engraver and would have been positioned nicely to move up in the ranks. However, the Wyon family’s long standing relation- ship with the Tower Mint kept them in employment and their sons employed as well. Morgan’s fate changed when the United States Mint Director, H.R. Linderman, sent a letter to the London Mint Director, Charles W. Fremantle around 1876. Linderman believed a change needed to be made within the U.S. Mint, and was wor- ried that the current Chief Engraver and his son, William and Charles Barber, were too distracted by other private jobs and possibly too under-qualified in order to make this change. Mr. Linderman was specifically worried about the design of the coins that were in circulation at the time; the public seemed to have a negative opinion concerning the aesthetics of the coins. In his letter, he told Fremantle he did not believe America’s engraving process was as refined and elegant as the British Mint, and requested that Mr.
