Lewis Feuchtwanger was a German doctor and metallurgist who immigrated to New York City in 1829, where he opened a pharmacy and practiced medicine. He became well known for his collection of minerals and for attempting to introduce nickel silver into U.S. coinage, drawing attention to the combustibility of saltpeter. He was a member of scientific societies in the United States and abroad.
