安大略省聖托馬斯的哈里·詹姆斯（Harry James）是加拿大最受尊敬的象徵專家之一，也是數值社區的支柱之一，已有五十年多的歷史，於4月19日去世。

詹姆斯是一位多產的研究員，作家和演講者，以其廣泛的工作記錄加拿大商人令牌和貿易作品而聞名。

Harry James, 86, of St. Thomas, Ont., one of Canada’s most respected token experts and a pillar of the numismatic community for more than five decades, died on April 19.

86歲的哈里·詹姆斯（Harry James）來自安大略省聖托馬斯（St. Thomas），這是加拿大最受人尊敬的象徵專家之一，也是數值社區的支柱，已有五十多年的歷史，於4月19日去世。

A prolific researcher, author and speaker, James was best known for his extensive work documenting Canadian merchant tokens and trade pieces. He authored several regional token catalogues and the landmark Guide to Ontario Tokens, a multi-hundred-page reference used by collectors nationwide. As president of the Canadian Association of Token Collectors (CATC) for nearly 40 years, James helped foster a generation of collectors and researchers, all while contributing to the Ontario Numismatic Association and the Royal Canadian Numismatic Association as an educator and exhibitor.

詹姆斯是一位多產的研究員，作家和演講者，以其廣泛的工作記錄加拿大商人令牌和貿易作品而聞名。他撰寫了幾個區域代幣目錄和《安大略省代幣的里程碑》指南，這是全國收藏家使用的數百頁參考。作為加拿大代幣收藏家協會（CATC）的主席已有近40年的歷史，詹姆斯幫助培養了一代收藏家和研究人員，同時又為安大略省錢幣協會和加拿大皇家錢幣協會做出了貢獻。

“Harry was the backbone of the CATC for many years,” said CATC president Scott Douglas. “As a numismatist, he loved to share his knowledge with everyone. As a dealer, Harry was the epitome of honesty and integrity. Harry leaves a large hole in Canadian numismatics and in many of our lives. He will be missed.”

CATC總裁斯科特·道格拉斯（Scott Douglas）說：“哈利多年來一直是CATC的骨幹。” “作為一名錢幣主義者，他喜歡與所有人分享自己的知識。作為經銷商，哈利是誠實和正直的縮影。哈利在加拿大錢幣學和我們的許多生活中留下了一個大洞。他會被錯過的。”

Douglas also shared the following in his upcoming President’s Message for the next issue of Numismatica Canada:

道格拉斯還在他即將到達的總統對下一期《錢幣加拿大》的信息中分享了以下內容：

“It is with a heavy heart that I bring sad news of the passing of our President Emeritus, Harry N. James. This title was bestowed on Harry in 2020 after he had served the CATC for two years as Vice-President before stepping up in 1980 to the President’s position for a remarkable 40 years (1980 to 2020).

“正是我心中的心臟是我的名譽總統哈里·詹姆斯（Harry N. James）的逝世的令人遺憾的消息。在他在1980年擔任CATC任職兩年之後，於2020年授予了哈里（Harry）的冠軍頭銜，並在1980年加入了總統的職位，以獲得出色的40年（1980年至2020年）。

During this time, Harry wrote approximately 300 articles for our journals (both The CeeTee and Numismatica Canada), a 120-page book, Advertising Tokens of Ontario (2005), and an 800-page book, A Guide to Ontario Tokens (2012), as well as publishing a booklet on each of the counties individually. Harry also printed and mailed each issue of the newsletter to the membership for many, many years.

在此期間，哈利為我們的期刊（Ceetee and Captica and Canada）撰寫了大約300篇文章，一本120頁的書，《安大略省的廣告代幣》（2005年）和一本800頁的書籍，《安大略省Tokens》（2012年）的指南（2012年），以及在各個縣中個人的文章。哈利還將新聞通訊的每一期印刷並郵寄給了會員資格很多年。

Harry was truly dedicated to the CATC and was a pillar of our organization. If you have an anecdote or reminiscence of Harry that you would like to share with the membership, please send it to our editor, Mr. Lorne Barnes.

哈利確實致力於CATC，並且是我們組織的支柱。如果您想與會員資格分享哈利的軼事或回憶，請將其發送給我們的編輯Lorne Barnes先生。

Harry N. James will be missed by all who knew him. His legacy lives on in the CATC. RIP.”

所有認識他的人都會想念哈里·詹姆斯。他的遺產一直生活在CATC中。 RIP。 ”

James is remembered by friends and colleagues as generous, knowledgeable and deeply committed to preserving Canada’s local numismatic history.

詹姆斯被朋友和同事們銘記為慷慨，知識淵博，並致力於保護加拿大當地的錢幣歷史。

A full tribute to Harry James’s life and legacy will appear in the next issue of Canadian Coin News.
