I may be able to partially answer your question early next year. We are developing a three-part peace medal project. Last Spring, my graduate class in exhibition created content and design for an on-line peace medal exhibition. It should be on our website, later this summer. I am editing a book on peace medals that is related to the exhibit but it is not, strictly speaking, an exhibition catalog. However, all of the articles pertain to our collection of medals. Finally, we are creating a 3D exhibition on peace medals that will include a fair number of paintings, photographs and other materials to enhance the medals. It will open in December of this year. I expect we will do some audience survey work to determine how what people think about it.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Numismatics

Hi All!
I'm interning at the Nat'l Museum of American History in the Numismatic Department. I'm just conducting a VERY informal survey.

If you are in any way involved in numismatics at your museum, how is it going for your collection? Is it popular with your town/audience/state? Really I'm just looking for any information that you would like to share. Again, this is informal. I'm just trying to get a pulse for numismatics. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Marlina F. Reese
