<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 1966699, member: 16948&quot;]Not long after I arrived at the Fly-In Club meeting, one of the ANA judges popped in to say that I was needed next door again at the Exhibit reception.&nbsp; I was confused as I had no idea what they needed me for.&nbsp; Well, I soon found out.&nbsp; My exhibit had also won First Place for a special award given out by the Goldberg’s for “Coins that Made History”!&nbsp; They told me that they really enjoyed my exhibit and that the penny is an important part of coin history.&nbsp; I was very thrilled to receive this extra special award from the Goldbergs!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2008%20Chicago%20ANA/IMG_6868_zps9a638c91.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2008%20Chicago%20ANA/IMG_6879_zps6bd514ba.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is the beautiful box and Mexican coin I received.&nbsp;
