So first of all, let me say this: In 1912, the Rochester Numismatic Association was founded, ANA Branch #2. Later they founded the Rochester Junior Numismatic Association. To join the RNA, you have to be 22, and to join the RJNA, under that age. I never really joined either because in the RJNA nobody takes anything seriously! I went to one meeting and that was it!!! But yesterday I received a package in the mail. It was from the RNA's Historian, and he was actually trying to get me to join because I send them my bi-monthly newsletter and they know that I understand the hobby and take it seriously. Along with a letter asking me to join, the guy sent me some coins and a currency note: -1889 British Victoria 1/2 Crown (Counterfeit, but a GREAT conversation piece). -Vietnamese 1820-40 Coin, King Ming Mang. -1787 Brasher's Doubloon, EB on Wing (Cast Copy). -Spanish Gold Doubloon (Copy). -1915 Mexican Cinco Pesos Note, BU (AMAZING NOTE!!!). -2009 RNA Presidential Medal. -1066-1087 PAXS Penny, AU (Possibly authentic?). I am DEFINITELY going to join the RJNA now!
