SUPPORT ANCIENT COINS FOR EDUCATION

Speaking of numismatic education, I've mentioned the Ancient 
Coins for Education program in the past. Zee Ann Poerio 
of the St. Louise de Marillac School in Pittsburgh PA is 
a teacher who has been deeply involved in the program, 
using coins to help teach her students ancient languages, 
culture and history. She writes: writes: "I will be doing 
the Ancient Coin Museum exhibit at the South Hills Village 
Barnes & Noble again next week on Saturday, November 3. 
Our school is having another Book Fair. Jamie Clifford, 
the author of 'Double Daggers' will be here from South 
Carolina. Also Mike Aquilina will discuss Christian symbols 
on ancient coins. The Latin Club will also do a short 
presentation. We will have coins donated by ACE for a drawing 
to those who attend and The US Mint donated some of the new 
dollar coin boards to pass out along with the penny blanks."

[I'm proud to have had a part in encouraging the Pennsylvania 
Association of Numismatists to make a series of donations 
to ACE to fund coins for classrooms throughout Pennsylvania. 
I encourage collectors throughout the U.S. to consider making 
a donation to this important educational program. -Editor]
