President's Day - History of the Washington Monument

Saw this CBS Sunday Morning video pop up and want to share with you. The Monument's construction was begun in 1848 and this year marks the 175th anniversary. Post a coin that is relevant to George Washington, another president you wish to honor, or an 1848 coin!

I don't know. I wasn't around back then. A quarter saved is a quarter earned, I guess.
