I have a small collection of about 200 pieces of coin club, dealer, collector and misc. exonumia. They're all related to our hobby in some way. It's kind of a fun offshoot of my "regular" collection interests. The elongated and encased I just received the other day from the issuing clubs. As you can see, the Memphis club is one of the older ones in the U.S. This is really a 3-piece set, and includes a 1936 plain and an "S" and "D" mint Buffalo Nickel. The 1952 NENA medal I bought in 2005 from Steve Hayden. I thought you might be interested in seeing these, so decided to post them. If anybody has this type of exonumia to sell please PM me. I'm always looking for nice pieces. Thanks Bruce
Thats a pretty neat collection. I see these from time to time, but don't have any personally. If I come across any I'll look you up...
I have one more NENA Chris, but I don't recall the date off hand. Yours is nice, as are most of theirs that I've seen. abe: Thanks, I appreciate it. Bruce
I have a goodly amount of this kind of thing, mostly from northern California in the late '80s/early '90s.
I think this kind of stuff is interesting to collect swhuck. Some of it, especially the medals, are beautiful and inexpensive to buy. Bruce
They're nice raider. I have a medal or two from Massapequa Coin Club but don't remember what years. I'll have to pull them out and post them. The obverse design on your four is a nice modern rendition of the Chain Cent. Good looking medals. Bruce
Here's my Massapequa Coin Club Medal from 2002 raider. I bought this from the club in 2003. It looks pewter, but I don't think it is. It's nice, but I like your set much better. Bruce
This one was designed by David Lange of NGC when he was still living in California. Can anyone find his initials on it? Chris
I don't see his initials on it Chris. Some of these medals show real quality craftsmanship, and are absolutely beautiful. I'll see if I can post a few more later, but right now I have a "honey do" list to work on. Bruce
