COIN EXHIBITING IN INDIA

The art of numismatic exhibiting and judging is spread
worldwide.  Here is an excerpt from an article about
exhibits at a recent coin show in India:

"While the judges team, comprising two numismatists
from the city and another such enthusiast from Maharashtra,
had a tough time in deciding on the winning collection from
about a dozen displays...

And once again Pankojini Jaiswal, an ace numismatist
from the city had the last laugh in the women's category
with an eclectic collection, while S.R. Arun bagged the
award in the senior men's category for his assortment of
American quarters.

Rachit Chaudhary from JH Tarapore School notched the top
spot in the junior category as he took the judges on a
trip around the world with his collection boasting of
coins from each country across the globe.

P. Baburao walked away with the overall trophy with his
collection of notes with signatures of RBI governors and
with numbers matching the birth dates of all Tata group
chairmen.

"Points such as the condition of coins, how well were
they displayed, rarity, clarity of the numbers and the
theme chosen were kept in mind while judging the displays,"
Col H.C. Pant, president of Coin Collectors' Club, said.
