About the Author :
David W. Lange (1958-2023) was one of the most respected researchers and writers in American numismatics. He authored numerous standard references, including The Complete Guide to Lincoln Cents, The Complete Guide to Mercury Dimes, and History of the United States Mint and Its Coinage. Lange was also a long-time columnist for Coin World and other leading hobby publications. In 1994 he joined Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), where he served as Director of Research until his passing, helping to establish NGC's reputation for scholarship and accuracy. Beyond his professional career, Lange was a passionate collector, historian, and mentor, known for his generosity in sharing knowledge with fellow hobbyists. His contributions to numismatic literature earned him multiple awards from the Numismatic Literary Guild, as well as recognition from the American Numismatic Association, where he was honored with the Numismatist of the Year award in 2009. Lange's work continues to inspire collectors, combining historical depth, technical expertise, and a love of the hobby that made him one of the field's most influential voices.
