Excerpt from Mason's Monthly Coin and Stamp Collectors' Magazine, Vol. 5: February, 1871
Numismatology seems predestined to be a science dull, from its very apparent monotony, to the unpracticed, unskilled, nay astute person; a science in all its appearances to the uninitiated as easily acquired as any art; but a trial often. Imposes doubts in the result of the investigation.
The copper coinage of the United States furnishes a field at once fertile to the inquiring mind and it is the purpose of the writer - who cannot claim to be even an amateur in the science - to stop these erratic speculations and come, at once, to the projected plan Of de scribing what he has found among the coppers, beginning with the fifties.
