Crawfords and Silver Coins
Inscription from the back of the frame: Your Grandparents: Laurel Edna Parker was born July 22, 1919. Stephen Claude Crawford was born August 30, 1914. THey were married June 15, 1940, and graduated from Walla Walla College, June 1941. You Grandfather served in the Navy from 1942- to the end of WWII. He was a pharmacist mate and served on a destroyer in the South Pacific. Your Grandfather was always the Secretary/Treasure [sic] in whatever organization he belonged to. He began buying silver coins out of the church offering many years ago when he realized the mints were going to stop silver production of coins. Your grandmother decided you should have something that was important to your Grandfather. She hopes you will treasure this gift of love from her, in remembrance of your Grandfather. Had your Grandfather lived to meet you..... I know he would have loved you with all his heart. He would have blessed your life, as he did mine. I pray that you will see him soon, when Jesus comes. Merry Christmas, 2001. I love you, Grandma Crawford and Aunt Carolyn. Claude died in March, 1969. The family ran a bookkeeping and tax preparation business, so that was a bad time to die. My dad came back to Sanger from Southern California and hired my mom to do clerical work temporarily to help take up the slack, and that's how they met. In 2001 when the above inscription was penned, Laurel already had advanced Alzheimer's and the sentiment contained is almost surely entirely Carolyn's.
2002 Kookaburra Silver Coin
A new version of this coin is issued by the Australian National Mint each year with each year's coin showing a different image of the Kookaburra. The series started in 1990 and the 2011 coins were just released. The coins are issued in 1/2 oz, 1 oz, 2 oz, 5 oz, 10 oz, and kilo sizes, all in pure silver. This is a BU coin, not proof, though in this series the regular BU coins are so well done that I question the need for proof versions. The way the series is issued is each year's image was on the previous year's proof.
