CARSON CITY BOOK UPDATED 

   Jim Halperin writes: "Enjoyed the latest E-Sylum as always. 
   Your readers might be interested in knowing that the newest 
   edition of Doug Winter's book, Gold Coins of the Carson 
   City Mint, 1870-1893,  just arrived from the printer last 
   week.   For more info:  http://www.CarsonCityGold.com." 

   The following is an except from the Doug Winters' comments 
   on his book from the above web site: 

   "My first book on Carson City gold coinage was published in 
   1994. It was an immediate success and quickly became the 
   standard reference on the series. Within a few years, it had 
   become scarce and a collector's item. 

   Ironically, as the first book became more valuable, it became 
   less useful. Some hoards of Carson City gold coins had 
   entered the market in the mid-1990's and changed the 
   population figures that I had suggested for a number of issues 
   Some great old collections came on the market and a number 
   of new Condition Census pieces made my old listings obsolete. 

   I decided to totally revise the book in 2000 and made it similar 
   in format and design to the Charlotte and Dahlonega books 
   that I had published in 1998 and 1999 respectively."
