This tabular listing with selected photographs is provided for the convenience and interest of other collectors. It certainly is incomplete (indeed, I have barely started this listing ) and it may have incorrect catalog numbers. If you can correct errors or omissions, or if you can supply illustrations for any items that lack them, I would be very grateful to hear from you and you can contact me at scholle1@nmt.edu. Please do NOT contact me if you have coins, tokens, or medallions already listed here for sale or trade or if you want to know prices of coins or medals — I am not a dealer and cannot help with such matters. On the other hand,
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Because the information on this page is contained a large table, nothing below
this note may show up on your browser until the table is completely loaded (and
that may take some time if you have a slow internet connection) so please
be patient.
