NEWARK MUSEUM HAS COINS, SPRINGSTEEN

  From the June 11, 2004 Newark (NJ) Star-Ledger:

  "The Newark Museum hopes it will lure a new audience with the
  upcoming photo retrospective of Bruce Springsteen's career,
  since it will be the only East Coast museum hosting "Springsteen:
  Troubadour of the Highway."

  "The Newark Museum, however, is much more than a showcase
  for the photographic album of Bruce Springsteen's career.

  Founded in 1909 on the top floor of the Newark Public Library
  and moved to its present location on Washington Street in 1929,
  the museum has grown to be one of the largest publicly held art
  collections in the state, as well as an educational institution that
  reaches out to well over 150,000 students each year through
  special programs, lending exhibits, Junior Gallery exhibitions, the
  Mini Zoo, Fire Museum and the 1784 Lyons Farms Schoolhouse
  on the grounds."

  "The museum also boasts impressive collections of Asian, Pacific,
  African and classical art, as well as coin and currency collections
  and the premier collection of New Jersey decorative and industrial
  arts."

  Do we have any readers from the Garden State who can tell
  us about the coins and currency on display?
