    Hi All,
    Can anyone tell me why the 1993 Thomas Jefferson commemorative half is not in the red book, they only list the 1993 Bill of Rights ?

    That is because the Jefferson commem program didn't get under way until 1994 (correct me if I am wrong). The coins are dated 1993 to keep with the anniversary of 1743-1993 but weren't available until 1994.

    And you will find the coin after the other 1994 commems in the Red Book.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi DM-77,
    Thanks do I feel stupid, and I look at the book all the time.

    You feel stupid? How about a Congress that can't figure out that a 1993 event should be celebrated in 1993.

    That's because there was no Thomas Jefferson Commemorative half. They only made a dollar for that year.

    Yes I saw the mistake after my post but did not change it because of the fast reply I got back.
