NUMISMATIC NOTES
Louisiunu Purchase

The first gold commemo-
rative coins issued by the
United States were the 1908
Louisiana Purchase dollars.
Two coins were issued, one
with a portrait Of Thomas
jefferson, who bought the
Louisiana Territory from
France, and one with a por-
trait of william Mckinley,
the President who authorized
the Louisiana Purchase Expo
sition held in st. Louis in
1904.
Charles E. Barber designed
both coins, which were alike
except for the portraits. In
all, 25O,258 coins were struck,
but about 215,000 were later
melted down, leaving about
17,700 Of each variety.
The coins were sold for SO
at the time of issue, with the
profits going to help meet the
expense Of the exposition.
Since the act Of Congress
authorizing the coin said
nothing about two varieties,
the Mckinley version is some
times considered a memorial
issue for the President who
had been assassinated in 1901.
The purchase was one of
the greatest bargains of
history for all concerned.

Pershing's s Portrait
On Scent Regular
BY BELMONT FAIRIES
Star Stamp Editor

A portrait of General of the
Armies John J. Pershing,
commander of the American
Expeditionary Force in
France in World War I, will
appear on a new Scent regu-
lar stamp to be issued No.
vember II in New York.
First day ceremonies will be
held in connection with the
opening of the National Post
age Stamp Show of the
American Stamp Dealers As
ISOLATION at the list Infantry
Regiment Armory, Park ave-
nue. and Thirty-fourth street.
Gen. Pershing was born in
September. 1860. near La
clede, Mo. After graduation
from West Point he was COM
misSioned in the 9Th Cavalry
and served in campaigns
against the ApacheS and the
Sioux. He took part in the
Santiago campaign in the
Spanish-American War and
later pacified the Moros in
the Philippines. President
Theodore Roosevelt promoted
him from captain to brigadier
general over S62 senior Off
GERS.
In 1916 he commanded the
expedition into Mexico
against Pancho Villa and the
following year he was named
to command the AEF in
France. His insistence on the
integrity of the American
Army in Europe as a fighting
force created problems for
the allies but was justified
by the victories Of st. Mihiel
and in the Meuse Argonne
which assured the defeat Of
Germany.
Gen. Pershing died at Wal
ter Reed Hospital July Is,
1948. and is buried in Arling-
ton Cemetery.
Admirers Of Gen. PerShing
who have long sought a stamp
for him, made a determined
effort last year, the centen-
nial of his birth, but were
told that a commemorative
was not possible because the
general had not been dead
Is years. This rule has since
been abandoned.
The Pershing stamp will re-
place the current Scent
Statue Of Liberty, q design
which was transferred with
colors reversed to the new
ll-cent denomination when
the international letter rate
was increased earlier this
year. An Scent denomination
still is required for double
the first-claSS rate.
The stamp, which will be
printed in khaki, pictures
Gen. Pershing in full uni
form at the right facing left.

The United States doubled its
area and solved many of its
Western problems for only
SIS million. Napoleon got
cash for his military ad-
ventures for a territory which
he could not have held in
the inevitable war with Eng
land.
The agreement with France
was made April 80, 1903. 1t
was ratified by the Senate on

Philadelphia COunterfeits
When a million counter
felt stamps were seized by the
Secret Service in Philadelphia
on October 10, United States
Attorney Drew J. T. O'Keefe
described them as "near-per-
feet reproductions"
Few stamp collectors would
agree. The counterfeits were
probably good enough to get
past postal clerks in the
Christmas rush. But no off
set autographed copy is a
near-perfect reproduction Of
a recess-engraved stamp.
Stamps printed from re-
ceSs-engraved plates have a
sharp. clear appearance. with
the linked design standing
out from the paper. The
Philadelphia counterfeits are
flat and dull, with a darker
tone. Many Of the fine lines
of the engraving are blurred
together or lost.
In sheet form the counter
feits are even more obviously
bad. The sheets were built up
photographically from a hori-
zontal strip of 10 stamps
repeated 10 times from top
to bottom. But the stamps
photographed were coil
stamps, which, because Of a
different plate layout for ro-
tary press printing, are
slightly wider and not quite
as high as those for the usual
post office sheets.
Although the stamps are
Of the coil type, the plate
number. 26.401 IN the lower
left pane position, is q good
one for a regular 4-cent ro-
tary plate.
Perforation is poor, OBJ
viously done one row at a
time by a line perforator. The
gum Is lighter in color than
it should be and the paper
is slicker and appears whittier.
