ANA min-mint designs by Joe Paonessa & Dan Carr

edix2001

Here's the past few years in ANA Money Museum mini-mint souvenir strikes. The first two are by Paonessa. The third and fourth have an obverse by Carr and a Paonessa reverse, and the fifth is by Paonessa. First three are in pewter, fourth is overstruck on 1976 cent, and fifth is brass.
I'm always so happy to pick things like these up. It's very educational from both a symbolic and a mechanical perspective and fun for all!

Brass piece is a cob from "The Treasures of the Deep" exhibit.

Joe does a great job. He is the Vice President of our Racine Numismatic Society, and will be voted in to take my place as President of the club. He brings some of his handy work to our meetings. Thanks for sharing his stuff (Dan's, too).

The A.N.A. currently has a fundraising promotion offering these limited edition cobs, likely designed by Joe Paonessa, struck on the mini-mint press at the Money Museum.
