The E-Sylum: Volume 6, Number 27, July 6, 2003, Article 21 COIN BAG COLLECTING & OTHER STRANGE AFFLICTIONS Regarding last week's mention of collecting coin bags, Dan Hamelberg writes: "It looks like I have company on my U.S. Mint coin bag collection. I am not as serious about the bags as I am on other items, but when I find them I usually buy them. One more thing to crowd into my library. If you think collecting Mint bags is nuts, try some other "exonumia" items such as: coin changers coin paperweights ( the clear lucite items with coins) coin glass U.S. Mint postcards coin clocks book press units (have 4) coin coasters "large coins" - - display items coin scales" R.K.'Bob' Lusch adds: "File this under you-do-not-have-to -be-nuts-but-it-helps. Joe Luek collects mint bags. I have a collection of "Bank Bags' as well as Federal Reserve bags. NOT ONLY THAT, but the Bell System used to have their own bank bags sewn up just like the mints. Each 'operating company' had their own. So I guess there is more than one "squirrel' in the "NUT" pile."
