  11. :hysterical::rofl:

     

    There is talk about cutting postal service back to three days a week. I can barely wait from Saturday to Monday as it is!

     

     

    I think the postal service should do away with the junk mail rates or at least raise them substantially. That would quickly overcome any cash shortfalls they might have.

     

    More nice coins. Keep them coming.

  12. How about some Howland Wood medals? These are given out for best in show exhibits. I am not sure what year these were instituted, but originally they were a silver medal given the the best of show exhibitor. Sometime in the 1990s they started announcing who the runners up were, and in 1999 they switched to a gold/silver/bronze system.

     

    This is the very first bronze given out for second runner up (for my exhibit on eagle varieties on Imperial Russian rubles). The color changed to a more coppery color in later years.

     

    bronze.jpg

     

    When they present the awards at the ANA banquet, they give you a medal in a box, but there's a note saying please give it back at the end of the banquet so it can be engraved on the reverse. By the time I won my first Best of Show, I knew that that process would take more than two months, so I photographed the "presentation" medal.

     

    gold.jpg

     

    This medal was apparently donated by the Franklin mint and at some point they stopped doing that, so the ANA went to another supplier and the medals took on a much more polished look, so the gold ones I have are polished--unfortunately I don't have pics ready to hand. Apparently now they are lustrous once again.

     

    It turns out I have the largest (but not the best!) collection of Howland Wood medals, three bronzes and three golds. Thomas Law's heirs have three silvers (back from when they _were_ the Best of Show award) and two golds. No one has won all three types of medals. Sam Deep is another multiple-medal holder and he never got a bronze, and I never got a silver. Now the first and second runners up get a Radford Stearns medal.

     

     

    Congratulations on the fine wins. The medals are beautiful. I'd not seen them before that I can recall. The exhibits are one of my favorite parts of a show. I spend more time there than on the sales floor, generally speaking that is.
