Very nice new exhibit on Medals. Large Washingtonia section, including the die for the Washington Born Virginia token.

Also there were a few nice errors in a different part of the room.

    I’m a big fan of the O’Dowd Tyrant display because a lot of information is provided about each piece.

    Is any information provided about each piece in this display?

    Thanks for the pictures @CaptHenway. I remember searching for years as a kid for a copper '43.... At that time, I did not know about the steel '44 cents. Cheers, RickO

    I've visited a few times during the last couple months :smiley:
    Something different in the Museum captures my attention for a while every single time lol.
    The medal exhibit is extensive and impressive!!!
    The Harry Bass Gallery is getting ready to go away VERY soon!
