Souvenirs from the battle-fields of Furope are already finding their way into the Royal Ontario Museum. The other day a returned soldier brought in a huge coin which he had found in Sicily. A house-wall had blown up in front of him, scattering big and little coins in his path. The largest was 2 9/16 inches in diameter, made of cast brass. On one side it showed a sow suckling seven little pigs, As it certainly appeared to be an old coin, we at the Museum promised to ident- ify it. But we were rash. Apparent- ly: Museum staffs and Museum books don't "know" everything, for we could not find anything like it high or low. Finally we got the American Numis- matic Society on the trail. And what did they say ?---that it was a fake, put over on the innocent soldier by the wall. Had he stumbled on the house of a forger? We shall never know , but it's a warning to souvenir- hunters that all that glitters isn't even ancient brass.
