Nice job, Jeremy

MFH

Jeremy emailed me a PM the other day saying that he had written an article on his adventure to the Smithsonian. The article is on page 34 of Numismatic News, issue: 9/28/04.

Well written article. Congratulations.






Oh, by the way the SI is looking for one of their 1804 silver dollars..............

I Agree.

I also concur!

I agree.

I also think it's fantastic that the SI allowed Jeremy (and others ) to help out. "Fun", "historic", and "mind-blowing" are all insufficient adjectives to describe the time we spent there. I'd call it "surreal"!

I heard he tried to steal a bunch of coins and security had to tackle him in the parking lot

No actually that's what happened the next day when he visited the Air and Space Museum. I heard he tried to cut a piece from the Wright Brother's Flyer as a momento of his trip!

I went to the Smithsonian myself a few weeks ago. I saw the 1933 double eagle and a rare 1804 silver dollar.

So you're the one responsible for taking this exhibit away. How could you?

I just finished reading the article. Congrats on a job well done.

How the devil did you score something like this?

AND WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE A TAWL BODYGUARD WITH YA!! DC can be a dangerous place to be.

I've got connections Seriously, though, I owe the opportunity to Andy Lustig (MrEureka) and Jim Hughes of the Smithsonian.

I don't know if you are aware of it Jeremy but this is something you will be able to pass along to your kids and grand kids. You are moving in all the right crowds and making a name for yourself in the numistamatic field. You should be very proud of yourself. I know I am very proud of you as I'm sure most on this board! Keep up the good work!!!

Nicely written article....very good job (though NN could use a proofreader). I concur about your 'running in the right circles' Jeremy....but DAMN, only 17?????? Do we still consider you a YN?? lol

Keep up the good work Jeremy....you will go far in life....you are WAY ahead of MOST people your age, and older for that matter!!!
