Coin Club meeting set

The regular meeting of the Wayne County Coin Club will be held at the American Legion Hall, 200 E Union Street, Newark, at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 2.

Following a business meeting, Wayne Pembroke of Marion will tell those present about his collecting interests, how he got started and what he is still searching for.

Also taking place at the meeting will be the donation of books from the club, to the libraries of Wayne County, in memory of Maury Warner.

The meeting will conclude with an auction of numismatic items. While the offerings are unknown until the night of the meeting they usually include US coins and paper money as well as foreign coins, medals and even wooden nickels of local interest.

Anyone interested in the collecting and preserving of any type of items used for money, be it coins, bills, tokens or even wooden nickels, as well as the medallist art, is welcome to attend the meeting. Generally the meetings are over by 9 p.m. and children are welcome to attend.

Most meetings are attended by at least three members who are not only collectors but have been dealers for many years. They are qualified to both appraise and are anxious to buy numismatic items.

While membership is not required to buy or sell at the meeting, it is encouraged. Annual dues are only three dollars.
