A new album about bells

Postby ovidiu oana » Fri Apr 20, 2012 4:46 pm

I'm sure you all know about coins and bells.
Into the Ovidiu Oana bells collection site I have created a new album talking about coins with bells.
You will find there a brief story about some contemporary pieces, but also about another one, more than 2.500 years old, cast in proto-monney period.

After you'll visit this album, I will kindly ask each one visitors to help me to get / buy another different coins all over arround:

Ovidiu,

Are you specifically looking for currency (money) with bells on them? I have some trolley car tokens with bells on them. Here is an example of what I'm talking about:

Carolyn,
I'm looking for any kind of coins with bells (not only currency (monney)
I'll be glad to have one like this!
Thank you!

I collect ancient coins.
I collect bells.
I never thought about the crossover.
You have me thinking. What do I own?

It gives me an excuse to look through my coins again :-)

I am pretty much sure most would be uninterested in either :lol:

I do depend on RSC or "Roman Silver Coins" for work with my coin business.
There is a space for a book on bells that would have this status.

If you are a technical writer, and have specific knowledge of bells, you could start the book I have been looking for.

If you have very specific knowledge of bells that is not possessed by others, you may want to put together a "Project" to produce a reference guide.
In my limited experience, I have found money available for two types of projects.
1. I am an expert on this specific product that no one else has produced a guide for, but need a tech writer.
2. I am an expert and I am also a good enough writer to go directly to an editor.

(BTW if anyone knows of a real reference book on bells I would appreciate the info. No show and tell books, real reference books seem to be in short supply).
