More to come. Montanabw (talk) 22:44, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
Passed. I'll do all the "paperwork" in a minute. Fun review, interesting character! Montanabw (talk) 04:12, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
"...John & Coleman Sellers, which made machinery for card sticking" What is "card sticking"? Google provides no clue.-- Wetman ( talk) 00:51, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
" Director Patterson called March 23, 1836 "an epoch in our coinage"" The article does not give a hint as to what was "epochal" about this specific date, in the context of applying steam power to coining.-- Wetman ( talk) 01:12, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
