WAYNE'S NUMISMATIC DIARY: JUNE 14, 2015

The June meeting of my Northern Virginia numismatic social group Nummis Nova took place a day earlier than our usual second Tuesday. It was a special event. Around 6pm Monday June 8, 2015 several of us (and several spouses) boarded the riverboat Dandy for a dinner cruise up and down the Potomac River. It was the first time we've tried such a venue, and it was enjoyable despite some occasional rainshowers.

My wife couldn't attend, so I went stag, as did Jon Radel, who organized the evening for us. Thanks! Other attendees included Dave and Joanne Schenkman, Wayne and Karin Herndon, Joe and Hope Esposito, Joe and Alice Levine, Eric and Heather Schena, Tom and Dot Kays, and Gene and Amelia Brandenburg. Everyone boarded from the dock in Old Town Alexandria, VA.

Numismatic discussion was kept to a minimum, although we did discuss an odd Acorn, VA token that's described in detail elsewhere in this issue. It was a fun evening, and we enjoyed seeing the monuments and skyline of Washington D.C.

It was an expensive evening, but everyone expressed interest in trying it again sometime. As always, the best part of Nummis Nova meetings is simply the fellowship of those who share (and put up with) our common hobby. 'Til next time.
