    If you check the MSNS website, you will see that we put Felix Schlag's memorial near the top of the Articles Archive. Send a couple of pictures with the people identified and a paragraph about your visit and I will add that to the top of the article as a "prequel" or introduction.

    Also, remember that the MSNS MichMatist pays 10 cents per word up to $100 for feature articles. Anyone who writes for this medium can write for print. Most of the pictures now run in color.

    I put this on my calendar back in June, but I will be working that day.

    I started him with a Proof set for last Christmas, and someday he'll probably end up with a set of US cents. (1793-Whenever)

    The problem with meetings like this is around this area, of Illinois, there are too many coin shows, gun shows, knife shows, camera shows, taste of Chicago and now taste of almost every suburb going one. Venitian Night, parties and just stuff to do so much that traveling takes up to much time or I'd be there.

    you were missed Just Carl :D

    not as many folks showed up as i would have thought. Still a nice meeting! Myself, Noost, JimM, jessash1976 and a nice fella from the CU forum showed up. There was also a nice gentleman from the city who ran a coinshop that attended as well.

    left to right... Jim, the local coin shop fellow, Noost, Jess, in the back the CU fellow, a frined of Jess's and myself.

    We visited a local 'museum' that had some artifcats from the design compitition that Felix won. As well as a few images. Was quite a nice place! We then headed over to the grave site. Very nice memorial that the MSNS put in!
