Published and edited by Chris Faulkner and Jacob Lipson, the Occasional Numismatic Papers series gathers well-researched works on Canadian numismatics. The recently released December 2025 issue includes articles by Jeff Ogborne, Markus Molenda, and Jacob Lipson, in addition to related notes. Lipson’s piece questions the authenticity of a large-size George III Indian Chief medal. The example is underweight and failed composition testing. A piece of chipped plating betrayed brassy color underneath, obviously incorrectly for a medal ostensibly struck in silver.
