  • Those pics are great! What book did they come from? Also, I really like the centennial medal set in original case. Very cool stuff.
    Always interested in nice love tokens and engraved coins.

    I was in DC last month and visited the mall. Previously, I had quickly toured the Centennial Exposition building, vowing to return when “I have enough time” to see the whole thing.

    I was deeply disappointed to discover that the building is closed indefinitely. The docent in the Smithsonian Castle indicated that it was closed permanently.

    For those who have never been there, it was truly a time machine!
