An interesting note...

A diversion from politics.

For those who may live near Baltimore, and looking for something to do this weekend, the Walton 1913 Liberty Nickel is on display this weekend at the Baltimore Expo Center, prior to it's offering at the Central States Numismatic Society convention in Chicago. This was one of 5 1913 Liberty Nickels, and was believed lost for more than 40 years. Well of course, it was in the hardware section of WalMart. Won't even guess what it will gavel for.

ASOT - I didn't realize you were so close. I am in the Baltimore/Washington metro area myself.

Wahbooz - thanks for posting this. It sounds neat. I wish I didn't have to work all weekend.

Friday, ASOT, connieb, you're all very welcome. This is a story that will be getting some traction over the next few weeks. I hope a lot of people got to see this special coin.
