November 12, 2019: Calendar Medals Issued by the Haupt Mint

For our November meeting, MCCC Treasurer Simcha Kuritzky will be showing calendar medals issued by the Vienna, Austria (Haupt) Mint from 1932 to 1946. The medals have a unique beauty, and Simcha will discuss how they reflect the political situation of the time.

Collectors of the American Innovation $1 Coins will be able to purchase the Pennsylvania coin honoring the discovery of the polio vaccine in 1953 by Dr. Jonas Salk and his team.

America the Beautiful Quarters collectors may be able to purchase the quarters honoring the San Antonio Mission National Historic Park (Texas) and the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, if the U.S. Mint makes them available before the meeting.

It is also time to get ready for the Donated Auction and Potluck Dinner in December. See this message for more information.
