TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTMTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTl AN INDEX TO THE Coins and Medals OF THE CABINET OF THE Mint of the United States AT PHILADELPHIA. O. C. BOSBYSHELL, SUPERINTENDENT. Prepared by R. A.

PREFACE HE CABINET was organized in 1838 and first recognized in an appropriation made by Congress, March 3, 1839. This appropri- ation was ( ' for specimens of ores and coins to be reserved at the Mint," and has been continued through subsequent years to the present time. At first United States coins were preserved from year to year by Mr. Adam Eckfeldt, together with some foreign coins which were re- ceived as deposits and withheld from the melting pot. In i860 a descriptive catalogue, entitled " Coins of All Nations," was published under the auspices of the Director of the Mint, Hon. James Ross Snowden, and prepared by Mr. George Bull, who was in charge of the Cabinet. He received valuable advice and assistance from Mr. William E. Dubois, who was at that time Assistant Assayer and Curator of the Cabinet. It was and is a very valuable work, but so costly that very few were sold to the many thousand visitors. Many coins and medals have been added since 1 860, and in their selection and purchase their histori- cal interest has been considered of most importance. The coins of all countries, ancient and modern, are arranged chronologically, and num- bered in their respective cases. By the assistance of this publication, which gives the numbers that include the different countries, biographi- cal and geographical indexes, the value of foreign coins, and other mat- ters relating to coins, it is thought the interest of the visitor will be much increased. Coins and medals are historically of great value as the indices of progress in science and art. (2) 'ORCESTER COUNTY LIBRARY JULY 1928 COINS AND MEDALS. GREEK REPUBLICS. No. Case I. 1-141. Coins of the Greek Republics. B. C. 700-300. Representing the coin- age of eighty-five different cities and colonies. The highest point of excel- lence in the art of engraving or die sinking, either in ancient or modern times, was about the time of the fourth century before Christ. The coins gen- erally reflect the art of the period and the places from which they were issued. It was considered sacrilege for any hu- man head to be on a coin, and the main object of the coin-type or obverse, was to place before the people an ideal rep- resentation of the divinity most hon- ored in the district in which the coin was destined to circulate. The head of Alexander the Great was the first to appear on' a coin, as son of Zeus Am- nion, and, as one after another of his generals assumed the title of King, each in turn was emboldened to place his own portrait on his money.

The principal Roman coin was the de- narius ; weight about 60 grains, value near 16 cents. The denarius gradually decreased in weight and fineness, until about the time of Elagabalus it was worth not more than 6 cents. From the dena- rius we ascertain the value of the inferior coins. It was worth 10 asses and after- wards 16 asses, and equal to 4 sester- tia and 2 quinari. The denarius is supposed to be the origin of the British penny. The aureus, or gold coin, was double the weight of the denarius, and under the first emperors was worth about $5 ; it also decreased in value. In the time of the sons of Constantine it was worth about $3, and continued at that for eight or nine centuries. The gold solidus of the Byzantine Empire was the currency of all Europe in the Middle Ages, and is often met with in histories of those times. FRANCE. No. Case IX. 1 179-1382.

The obverse of coins usually bears the head or bust of the ruler, with his or her name and title, if of a monarchy ; or a figure or emblem of liberty, if of a republic. The name of the country aud date is usually on the obverse side. The reverse usually bears the national or royal coat of arms, and the denomina- tion of the coin. The name of the country is often given in Latin, and sometimes abbreviated, as follows : OESTEREICH (Austria). Bayern (Bavaria). Cambodge (Cambodia). Daniae, Dansk (Denmark). BEIGES (Belgium). Bras. (Brazil). FrancaisE (France). Britanniarum (Great Britain). DeuTChes Reich (Germany). Hamb. (Hamburg). D'lTAUA (Italy). NorGES (Norway). Netheri^anden (Netherlands). Norem (Nuremburg). Peruana (Peru). Portug. (Portugal). PreusSEN (Prussia). Espana (Spain). Sachsen, Sachs (Saxony). Sueriges (Sweden). Hei/vetia (Switzer- land). MINERALS. The mineralogical Cabinet embraces several hundred specimens. Among those of interest to visitors are : A fac-simile of a nugget of gold from Australia ; the value of the original was about $23,000. A speck of gold, extracted from 5 ozs. of lead ore ; it represents one part in 6,220,000 parts. The speck is so minute, that it would require several hundreds of them to make a cent's worth of gold. It is curious as a specimen of minute assaying. A number of rare specimens of gold, silver and copper of peculiar shape. A vivianite, or phosphate of iron, the largest specimen known. An agate geode, from Oberstein, on the Rhine, which, being cut in half, exhibits the curious structure of such geodes. And many more interesting specimens, which, for want of space, we cannot enumerate. ( 18) BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX-COINS.
