FEATURED WEB SITE

  This week's featured web site is suggested by David Menchell.
  He writes: "Just wanted to make you aware of an interesting
  website.  The National Maritime Museum in London has a
  variety of items dealing with England's legacy as a naval, military
  and commercial power.  They have a range of material, including
  documents, artwork, and maritime artifacts.  Of particular interest
  to numismatists is a collection of roughly 3000 coins and medals.
  Each item has a web page devoted to it, with extensive
  descriptions, historical information, and excellent obverse and
  reverse images.  You can set up personal "galleries" to include
  only those items of particular interest.  Pictures of each coin or
  medal can be ordered online.  I was impressed with some of the
  Betts items listed, including some early and rare Dutch Caribbean
  medals, two (!) medals commemorating Sir Francis Drake's
  circumnavigation of the earth ca. 1589., and a large number of
  other victory and peace medals."
