NUMISMATIC NOTES
TWo-Cent Piece

Our bronze 2-cent piece is
a well-publicized coin with a
short life but a long history.
It is remembered as the first
coin to bear the motto still
in use, "In God We Trust"
Its brief span as a regular
coin, from 1864 to 1872, re-
fleets its lack of popular
appeal at a time when plenty
of l and 3 cent pieces were
available.
The history of the 2-cent
piece goes all the way back
to 1906. In that year a bill
to authorize a 2-cent coin
was defeated because the Di-
rector of the Mint believed
1t to be an unnecessary de-
nomination.
Thirty years later a 2-cent
coin was again proposed, this
time by the Director of the
Mint. Some small expert
mental pieces dated 1886
we're produced, but lack of
agreement on size and me-
tallic composition caused the
matter to be dropped.
The issue was revived by
still another director in 1868,
during the Civil War. Ex-
perimental coins were made
in several sizes. Some Of
these had a bust Of George
Washington and the motto,
God and Our Country"
Others bore a shield design
and the motto, God Our
Trust" The shield design
was adopted but Secre-
tary of the Treasury Salmon
P. Chase changed the word
ing of the motto to "In God
We Trust"
Coinage officially started
in 1864, using double the
weight in bronze of the In
dian head cent. But the
early director had been right.
The coins we're not popular

BEECHAM IN MEMORIAM
Sir Thomas Beecham dead?
Never! AS long as we live,
he will be as near as our
pEonograph, for his genius
and his generosity were as
one, and he shared his gifts
unstintingly.
How typical are two new
records from this crusty old
martinez who refused to per-
NIT physical wracking to twist
his youthful musical mind.
One from Angel is called
Love in Bath" What is itp
Another Of those charming
Handel-Beecha creations, a
ballet Sir Thomas constructed
from the odds and ends of
his beloved Handel and once
called THE Great Elope-
ment." How clean and fresh
1t is, SO transparent in tex
ture, jolly In spirit and low
ingly produced by this octo-
genarian and his incompar-
able Royal Philharmonic.
And as another in his final
series of recordings, Sir
Thomas selected the 17-year-
old Georges Bizet-his scintil-
lating Symphony in C major,
and how Bizet would have
loved the buoyancy Of it!
The reverse side is a pleas
ant surprise. Who has

may be heard on a splendid
new four record all Schu-
mann album from Epic.
On records Sells forces
play all four Schumann SYM
phonies, the immortal A mi
nor piano concerto and the
Manfred Overture. Leon
Fleisher, who is becoming to
the Cleveland orchestra what
Rudolf Serkin is to the Phila-
delphia, plays the concerto.
And it is a glowing thing,
sensitive, lucid and imagina-
tive.
