Coming to the United
States from Poland as a
young man with $10 in his
pocket, Mr. Moskovitz even-

and money in the promotion
of junior activities" Mr.
MoskoAtz paid the entire
cost of luncheons and other
affairs for junior members
at Michigan Numismatic
Society conventions.
When his collections drew
national attention, he travel-
ed from coast to coast to
show his coins whenever a
request was made. Part of
his collection may be seen in
the Kadman Museum in Tel
Aviv.
Mr. Moskovitz, who died at
age 64 last July 2, was a
life member of the American
Numismatic Association and
a member of the Michigan
Numismatic Association, the
Israel Numismatic Society
and the Detroit Coin Club'
and --every major coin club
throughout the country. He
was adviser to the numisma-
tic division of Roosevelt Uni-
versity in Chicago.
He was a founder of Young
Israel of Oak-Woods and a
member of Cong. Beth Abra-
ham-Hillel, Hebrew Benevo-
lent Society, the Masons, De-
troit Consistory, Crescent
Shrine and Pisgah Lodge of
Bnai Brith.
He is survived by his wife,
Ruth; a daughter, Mrs. Mor-
ris (Phyllis) Novetsky; two
sons, Leon and Alan; five
grandchildren, three broth-.
ers, and a sister.
