Book writing is fun...

I've been busy (up coming engineering presentations and numismatic book writing project) to write any journal entries at this website.

I took on a side project to write a book called The Hawaiiana Numismatist. For those who don't know, the current Hawaiian numismatic reference book (I don't want to mention the name), have been perpetuating a string of errors and inaccuracies.

What motivated me in this action is that NGC replied to an inquiry I made about a medal struck in an unlisted medal composition. Since its not listed in the Hawaiiana reference book, no NGC grading/encapsulation is possible.

I investigated this mater and found that the Hawaiian reference book was incorrect in leaving it out, as its listed in another guidebook (that is not used by NGC).

Just to keep things current I got my Hawaii 4-9 error back from NCS and I did a write-up at my new blog (related to the book writing effort)...
