  Chalmers and Thomas Sparrow.  Find out what coins they
  produced in Annapolis, why they were special and how
  they would have been safeguarded and dispensed.  A

  Several years ago at an American Numismatic Association
  convention (I've long since forgotten where and when),
  I had a pleasant dinner with young numismatists Vicken
  Yegparian, John Kraljevich and his mother Gail.  I remember
  showing the group a coin - a VF Nova Constellatio copper
  I'd bought at the show from Tom Rinaldo.  Little did I know
  then that I was dining with a future ANA Education
  Director (Gail Baker), and cataloguers for Stack's (Vicken)
  Bowers & Merena and American Numismatic Rarities
  (John).
