Numismatical Geekensteins

Last Sunday I was in the lotto line at Publix. Some guy in front of me was wearing a t-shirt from a boatyard in Coinjock, North Carolina. I couldn't stop thinking how geekily cool it would be to have a coin club medal from Coinjock North Carolina. So, I checked eBay and found nothing. Then I checked Wikipedia and their population in 2010 was 335. Soooo, I'm guessing there may not be any Coinjock coin club medals for awhile.

But I still want one!

If you have any Geekenstein coin ideas or stories you want to post, have at it.

Well... There is a street in my neighborhood called "Easy Street".

 

I don't see the coin geek connection with that?

 

Sure there is - newbies posting error coins!

 

Easy Street.... Used to be a reference to having plenty of cash..... Yeah, it was a reach. Sorry.

 

Well if you move there you can always tell the story about the coin collector that made it to easy street.

 

Just move to Coin, Spain

 

Now a Good4 token or medal from Coin, Spain would be a perfect Geekenstein, even more so if it was a token or medal commemorating an international coin convention held in Coin, Spain.

 

Or maybe Coin, Iowa, population 183 - home of the Gold Coin Cafe (at 1:00) & mystery monkey (at 2:22)

 

A slabbed lumber token from Slab City, California.
