Hi, Today Lord Marcovan and I start a participation thread to showcase the sesquicentennial of the Union in coins and exomunia, and to recognize the creativity within the membership.
Here’s how it works: starting on Sunday May 17 you can post coins, tokens, bars, etc. that represent the first state, Delaware. Topics can be the natives of that state, products, official state animals, events, fairs, sports—something that you can identify with that state.
We’ll feature one state per day and refer to the order in which the states entered the union. Rob, Mr Spud, or I will post the next state after midnight.
There is more than the state quarters —things that we should see in addition to the cream of your collections and imaginations:
Innovation dollars, Native American dollars, AW quarters—find a state for them, few see them all, this is an opportunity to learn.
Elongated coins
The variety of clashes, die cracks, die deterioration, extreme shelf doubling, and other worthless but visible flaws that the SQs, ATBs and AWs. (Bessie Coleman is Texan, who has the biggest wing chip? if one of your Iowa Effigies has big udders, show them off, Lafayette is not from the states, but we named cities and towns for him).
Top pops and lowballs
Use the opportunity to post things that you don’t get opportunities to show.
Practice photography and editing
Practice posting photos.
Show your interests and learn the interests of other collectors.
Check the calendar
Plan ahead
Refresh browsers before posting
Post often
If you miss a date, message the photo to us. We can use the announcement post as a placeholder, and edit your post into the right date.

Today we recognize Delaware—widely known for its Nascar oval, called the “Monster Mile”. Moonshiners’ descendants without teeth scalp their seats to the Washington D.C. fomo crowd
because of its long green-flag runs and infrequent crashes.
By coincidence, they run the race today at 3:00 Eastern time. It lasts long enough for two naps (recap the wrecks and have a snack in between).
Countermarked 1975 cent made from a BU roll—the set is complete, I bought it 35 years ago.
