Condolences from the Chopmark Collectors Club (CCC). Mr. Belschner was a founding member of our club (the second member to join) and was active in expanding knowledge of chopmarked coins over the years. He will be missed.

I am deeply saddened to learn of Paul's passing. I am a retired
AT&T telecommunications tech and spent some time with Paul
working at NIH and then Bethesda Naval Hospital installing and maintaining special circuits. I'm out of the area and unable to attend the funeral arrangements. He and his wife are in my prayers.

Jane and I were to sad to hear of Paul's passing. We always enjoyed being with him. In the Md. TAMS meeting yesterday, we not only paid tribute to him, but sadly said how much we miss him already.
