HARRY BOARD of Indianapolis inquires about the 1906 dime. He states that on most of our coins featuring Liberty, that she faces left and that this particular Liberty faces to the right. You've raised an interesting point, Mr. Board. We checked your facts and find that In the 1700's we had our Libertys facing right and then they turned to the left shortly.

The set has four different designs in eight denominations which show the different fields in which UNESCO has worked.

The 2-centime and 5-franc values feature musical and artistic designs, which symbolize UNESCO's efforts to advance the cultural activities of the emerging nations. The 30-centime and 10-franc stamps picture a child's hand holding an alphabet book, showing UNESCO's work to combat illiteracy. The 50-centime and 15-franc issues honor the organization's support of scientific research in many underdeveloped countries. UNESCO's work to save the Nubian Monuments in Egypt is commemorated on the 1 and 50-franc stamps. A view of the monuments partially covered by water is featured on the stamps.

Probably the coin which stumps the most people is the three cent piece. Preston R. Lanier of Indianapolis writes that he has this coin with the "Liberty Head on the front" with the date and there is a Roman Numeral HI inside of what looks like a wreath no words' on the reverse. It is just as hard for us to Imagine using a three cent piece and seeing them circulate as it will be for our descendants to Imagine the two dollar bill. You are right, Mr.

Lanier, As our illustration shows there is no inscription of any kind to denote that this is a three cent piece. We had a similar piece, made of silver and smaller, a little earlier than this, which gave only one clue. It had the Roman numerals Inside of a large letter for cents. NOT PUTTING the word "cents" on a coin got the government in a lot of trouble later. Nickels were gold plated and passed for five-dollar gold pieces, because the word was omitted.

This coin is considerably smaller than the three dollar gold piece however. The coin pictured is made of 75 per cent copper and 25 per cent nickel, with the appearance of being the latter. These were issued By ROBERT N. BELL Perhaps one of the most rapidly growing forms of stamp collecting is that of collecting topicals. This simply means that the collector concentrates on a particular topic, such as flowers, medicine or famous persons appearing on stamps, rather than collecting all types of stamps.

There are many reasons for the popularity of a topical collection. One is that so many nations have issued series of stamps on certain subjects, making it easier for the collector to concentrate on one subject. Another reason is that there are so many more stamp collectors today, all seeking to make their collections just a little different. One of the leading groups devoted entirely to topical collection is the American Topical Society. Throughout the year the association publishes various handbooks devoted to a certain topic appearing on stamps, which list all stamps issued on individual subjects.

Background information on the subject is also given. The group will soon release a handbook entitled "Cooking with Stamps" by Edwin L. Brooks. Collectors interested i purchasing this handbook or joining the association may write to the American Topical Association, 3300 North 50th Street, Milwaukee, S3216.
