my sixth letter as president.
Once again several Fly-In members have shown generosity and have made a donation along with their annual renewal. These include: Ray Brown I hope I have not missed anyone. Summer is often a time when many who call numismatics their main avocations turn to other pastimes. As such the hobby seems to endure a lull. Two great summertime numismatic escapes are the ANA Summer Seminar in Colorado Springs in July and the annual ANA “Money Show” (more commonly referred to as just the ANA) in August. Having been to three Summer Seminars I can attest to the fact they are a real treat for the novice and advanced collector. It is rare to hear anything but glowing words. The
ANA Show will be held in Atlanta, Georgia on August 8th through 12th.
The Fly-In Club will have a booth just outside the Main Exhibit Hall.
It will be manned by club volunteers John Smith, Frank Leone, Ken Hill,
Larry Steve, and myself. The Fly-In Club’s ANA meeting will be Friday,
August 10th at 1:00 p.m. The topic will be a study of Small Cent mintages
during the Indian cent years. We will also present the Best Article Award
for articles published in 1999 and 2000. We will also discuss the slate
of officer’s for the next term of the Club. Finally, I have heard
that there has been discovered an 1859 Indian cent struck over an already
struck 1857 Half Dime. It is possible it may be at the ANA. Please plan
to attend; we would love to see you. |
