newsletter. Let him know what coins you are interested in buying at our
club auctions and we will use the newsletter to advertise your interests..

support is greatly appreciated.
Please acknowledge the extra special support of Brad Yonaka, John
Skocilic , David Schwager and Joe Boyes who each pledged to pay
one month of the policy premium costs for our new liability insurance.
Jim Ewert also suggested we have a white elephant sale of donated
items at our November meeting to further reduce our out of pocket
costs for the insurance . Good idea Jim!
Please make a special effort to shop at OC RARE COIN and BULLION
(Harbor and 19th, Costa Mesa). This local coin shop has been extremely
generous to our club, giving us many valuable coins to support our club
auctions. Show them your appreciation by shopping at their facility at 1927
Harbor Blvd , Unit B, in Costa Mesa.
Education Program: Greg Thompson presented a very interesting talk
on “Medieval Accounting Tokens”. Greg walked us through medieval
history as far back as 1250 AD. This was really quite an undertaking
involving considerable research and was well presented. Greg has
spoken many times and has always done an excellent job.
Prizes: Dennis Rocklein won the Dos Pesos.
