new coin releases

well 2010 is starting its new releases. millard filmore presidential dollars are out and so is the new one cent coin i have been mentioning over the past few months. i am sure this will be followed with the new park and monument series shortly.
remember at the end of 2010 the lincoln presidential coin will be minted and i project a new interest in the presidential series. also as time goes by a lot of presidents that affected our personal lives will be issued and people will flock to the coins.
if this is not enough excitement a one hundredth anniversary commemorative coin of the boy scouts will also be issued shortly.
remember to log onto the usa mint if you want to purchase any of these series.

a new term for baby boomers?

are you as tired of hearing the term "baby boomer" as i am? for years this term has been thrown around and nobody knows what the hell it means.
well thank Jeff Byer for some new terms and if it becomes accepted terminology i want full credit. now let's begin.
as you probably know numismatics has changed the one cent coin every fifty years and in retrospect these years are an excellent way to determine just what a person is called. so i propose that the following terms become the standard for generations and you heard it here first.
if a person was born prior to 1909 they can be referred to as the ''indian generation".
if a person was born between 1910 and 1958 they are now called the "wheat generation."
between 1959 and 2008 they are now called the "memorial generation"".
finally anyone born during and after 2009 can be called the "new design generation".
naturally , this model will be called the "The Jeff Byer" formula because i thought of it and i will go down in history along with Abe and George. also on may fourth every school will be closed
in my honor for giving the world this model.
now please excuse me my shrink just called and said i am late for my appointment.

a great place for coins

when in chicago i recommend you visit the Morton Grove Coins & Collectibles store for a great experience in numismatics or on the web at http://www.mortongrovecoins.com.
David Fishman is the owner and he can supply you with just about all your numismatic needs.
he is a truly an honest and professional coin dealer and does all the major coin shows in the area. he can be reached at 1847-967-9200 or visit him at his store at 9241 Waukegan Road.
as Groucho stated,"tell him Jeff sent you.

remember those 3d pictures?

remember a couple of years ago when the rage was to look at a picture and have it turn into 3d before your very eyes?i do and in all honesty it drove me a little nuts until i saw something that other people saw rather instantly and i was left feeling like an inferior human being.
well, this weekend i met two great brothers and one told me he could not understand how his girlfriend could not look at coins for a whole weekend without going a little bananas.
he must have struck a nerve in me because my wife sometimes feels the same thing about me and i always remind her i am 'I am building her a dynasty' and can not understand how she could not want to join me in my pursuit for that great coin in the sky.
well, it finally hit me that coin collecting is very much like that 3d picture book and i no longer will get offended when she wants to play solitaire on the computer instead of helping me in my passion.
as with 3d pictures it takes time or you may never see what the other person sees.
oh , well excuse me its time for my knitting lesson now.
JUST KIDDING!

a new expansion for Reminicents

if you have been following this blog you might have noticed all the references to education and how coins are a unique teaching tool. well for 2010 i plan to expand the http://www.reminicents/ penny bracelet website into the educational realm which as i have said before has never been done before to my knowledge.
it is for this reason i am asking my readers to help me launch this division by sending me your ideas on how to do this. i would be greatly appreciative for any comments and please stay on top of this website to see how it develops.
if numismatics fails to get young people involved with the love of coins at a young age it will die as so many hobbies have done in the past. schools are a great place to start and help children develop this love.
STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFORMATION
