One of our members received some well deserved attention.

He is too modest to post this info so I will.

Jack Young, a true numismatist in every definition of that word, has been awarded the Sol Kaplan Award at the Central States Convention. Folks around fifty years ago will remember Mr. Kaplan from shows.

Jack's posts on identifying early counterfeits are always excellent and I learn something every time I read one. The data he is providing to the hobby is incredibly valuable

Thank you for the post and comments! As I said at acceptance I consider it a Team award with so many friends and members of the Hobby always quick to help with their time and support.

 

I wish I would have made the trek down from northern WI. I decided not to go since the Wausau show is Sunday and I didn't want to blow all of my budget in Illinois.

 

Jack and his work are definitely heroic to numismatics.

 

You rock @Jack D. Young
