I never thought so many people would see my fingers!

The Eliasberg publicity has been fun. The ANR gang (Frank Van Valen, Chris Karstedt, and myself) are still in NYC, so we haven't seen much of it aside from what was on cnn.com. I wonder if anyone saw any of it on TV or heard it on the radio? I heard that Paul Harvey and the BBC both did a piece on it.

The Eliasberg coins will be on display this weekend in New York, and later in Long Beach and Baltimore. If you have any interest at all in world coins, you owe it to yourself to see some of these coins. And, of course, this would be a fine time to start a world coin collection!

Thanks for the nice posts thus far. It's nice to make the paper and have it not be in the police briefs or the obits!

John K.
