Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Descriptive Catalogue of the Seavey Collection of American Coins It was nevertheless urged by many gentlemen interested in the science of numismatology, that, as almost every coin bearing the stamp of the national mint, and a large proportion of the early colonial and State issues, were described in this Catalogue, its publication would be of service to the public. In accordance with this view the present owner decided to proceed with the issue of a small edition, limited strictly to one hundred and fifty copies, and to offer these to subscribers at three dollars a copy. In the arrangement of his cabinet, Mr. Seavey had adopted the plan of placing the coins of each year together, thus combining the gold, silver, and copper coins of every date in one View.
