EJ Gold Acrylic on Canvasboard, 8″x10″ Collection of the Artist.
“Catch O’ The Day”. That’s how I envision the wooden shingle hanging below the Big Sign on the tiny coin shack somewhere in the midst of a wondrously attractive tourist town like Martha’s Vineyard, Woodstock, Jamestown, Williamsburg, Gettysburg, Carmel, Laguna, New York City or even New Palz. Anywhere there’s history, you’ll find coinage, and where there are coins, there are coin hunters — some with metal detectors, others with trading items, some with ready cash in pocket or purse. I’ll get right to the point — I have several dozen “Catches O’ The Day” sitting on my workbench presently. I’ve identified them, rough-graded them, examined and louped them and made comments about them on the dated “Magic Find” flip. These will be offered up for sale this morning at the ICW starting precisely at 6:30 Pacific Time. Today we’ll be trying to figure out a fair and equitable way to share out these coins and get them on the market. Most of my finds will sell at $1 or slightly more.
See You At The Top!!!
