Speaker:
David Schwager, "Eight Things to Do When You Don't Have Money to Buy Coins"
Taking a short reprieve from our recent series of guest speakers, this month our club President/resident Baron of Numismatic Novelty and Know-how™, David Schwager, will entertain and enlighten us on a variety of ways to engage in the hobby without breaking the bank.
Announcements:
From Mark Baskin:
"Hi Friends and Fellow Collectors,
Recently we have uncovered a piece of coin club history which Mr. Mike Ontko took the time to digitize.
The Archive is an Orange County Coin scrapbook/album our past Secretary Bill Pfeifer had been caretaking. I’ve been looking through it and there are many familiar names that include some of our local Southern California numismatic greats.
Mike’s pictures can be enlarged to easily read the text. I’ve quite enjoyed it so far and I’ve just scratched the surface.
Hope you and your families are and continue to be healthy.
Enjoy!
Mark"
