James (Jim) Edward Charlton - Canadian Literature
James E. Charlton was born on July 26, 1911.
After working as a stationary engineer, he opened a coin store in Toronto. He published his first guidebook, Catalogue of Canadian Coins, Tokens & Fractional Currency, in 1952. Other titles from Charlton Press followed. Along with all of his help in the Canadian coin market, he was also a member of the New York coin club.
Subsequently, he sold his store to concentrate on his publications, and later sold his publishing company, Charlton Press, which continues to publish price guides for coins, banknotes and other collectibles. He turned 100 in July 2011.
In 1972, James was recipient of the J. Douglas Ferguson Award for his distinguished services to Canadian numismatics.
Charlton died at Hamilton General Hospital on Friday, September 20, 2013 at 7:34:35 a.m. in his 103rd year.
