Does your collection have a name?

I've been thinking of giving my collection of numismatic publisher medals a fancy, marketing hype type name.

After all, it is one of the finest collections of these medals ever assembled.

Any suggestions?

    I have recently renamed mine the 291fifth Collection™, so you will have to come up with another name. image

    Three Rivers Collection, and no, it's not marketing hype. Nothing is for sale.

    Nothing is for sale at anything close to realistic prices. If you are a nut with too much money, call me, and we will discuss it.
