Let's see your exonumia!

The ANA did a tribute to that piece for their 2000 National Convention . . .

I found an upgrade to the Pocahontas pieces I posted above.

The gold gilt is fully intact on this piece. It's so bright, I gotta wear shades . . . .

Oh man, don't get me started on Heraldic Art medals . . . . .

It's nice. I've never seen a coin club issue from Daytona.

 

This has a few of my favorite things on one envelope. I saw 2 in person the American Freedom Train and the Wagon train to PA.

 

What is that Liberty Bell coin? Great design!

 

1926 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar

 

Thanks, I didn't realize that one had a Liberty Bell reverse!

Just added this coin to my wish list!

 

Interestingly enough, the 1926 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar is the only coin ever to depict a living President on the obverse. President Calvin Coolidge appears alongside George Washington and is one of four American officeholders who appeared on a coin during their lifetime.

 

Who are the others?

 

Thomas E. Kilby: Governor of Alabama who's on the Alabama Centennial half dollar.

Joseph T. Robinson: U.S Senator from Arkansas and Senate Majority Leader who's on the Arkansas-Robinson half dollar.

Carter Glass: U.S. Senator from Virginia who's on the Lynchburg Sesquicentennial half dollar.

 

For your enjoyment . . . . .

I've really gone down another deep and compelling rabbit hole with these French Marianne medals.

@dwhiz , I'm working on one that will blow your mind, but for now, here is another incoming. I'll post my own photos when they arrive.

@ZoidMeister
and for yours

 

Very primo items there, thanks.

 

Mr. Whiz,

In addition to the new French Medal kick that I am on, I have been smitten with another variety / series of exonumia. I think you will like a couple that I have picked up.

I still have ONE thing that I am holding back on. I need to secure it before I can talk about it, until then . . . . . . . . .

@ZoidMeister
They are beautiful. At one time I've owned a bunch, and enjoyed every one.
I must say there is a lot of beautiful exonumia out there

VERY nice! My Sweet Hilde was a beekeeper until about ten years ago...that would make a fine gift for her.

Where, oh where, pray, might a fellow find another one of them?? wlw
