About a year and a half ago, I recall a board member was opening a coin and jewelry store. I think a couple of photos of the storefront were posted, too. Anyone know how that turned out?

Added: Was that VTcoins?

    his website: http://www.dawesandco.com/

    says his store has moved and has a new website. When I click on the new website it looks like its specializes in guns, etc and not coins.

    Hey guys!

    RWB ... if you were referring to me ... our shop is still open and going great.

    Rutland is a small market, so my shop is low traffic, but I enjoy the having the shop. My golf game has suffered, though. image


    Here is a pic of our sign (with the Morgan pic from poorguy):

    Tim,
    Yeah. That's the place! Glad to see the business is still there and I hope doing well! (Presumably, you're in a post-leaf-peeper lull.)
