  You should ask your law firm for a reccomendation. They use transcription services all the time. I don't think there is a numismatic specialty, but perhaps there is someone out there that knows a person who has experience with transcribing numismatic matter.

  I wonder if it wouldn't be faster to get ANY skilled transcriptionist to do the work, and let someone with numismatic knowledge proof it later. That might not be too tough, listening to the DVD while reading the draft transcript.

  New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

  Hi folks-
  
  Thanks for the comments. I am sure that any competent transcriptionist can handle the work. I have worked with a number of them as an expert witness in the medical malpractice/pharmaceutical field. I just wanted to first offer it to those in the numismatic community in case there was someone looking for a few small projects. Thanks, again.
