The Western Pennsylvania

Presentations


It is a tradition at the Western Pennsylvania Numismatic Society for members to prepare written copies of their presentations before the Society.   Over the years a number of interesting and informative presentations on numismatic topics have been preserved in our archives.   Some of these are reprinted here.   While the numismatic content may be outdated in some, any or all of the presentations may prove of interest to today's collectors and scholars. 

The presentations are currently listed in no particular order - as the collection grows we'll build an index.  To view a presentation, click on the title.   Authors are listed by initials only, unless deceased or permission has been given.
