Coins Come Alive

We just returned from Charleston,West Virginia and had the wonderful experience of visiting Thomas Jefferson's home. It just so happens to be the home on the back of the five cent coin and we were amazed how beautiful the real home is. It is part of the Monticello estate and would love to see some readers of this blog take our advice and go see it for yourselves.

This home is living history and because of coin collecting I went out of my way to see the real model.What an experience.
