TOM URAM VISITS LONDON

American Numismatic Association President Tom Uram was in London this week, where he attended the annual banquet of The Worshipful Company of Fruiterers at Mansion House. He kindly passed along these notes and photos for our readers. Thank you! -Editor

This past Friday I had the opportunity of receiving an invitation from Carlos Kearns who has a working relationship in London. He invited me to this very formal dinner.

Of course, I could not pass up the opportunity to promote the ANA. Probably against protocol, however without creating any international incident, I was able to make several presentations.

Tom presented one of the coins to the Lord Mayor of London. -Editor

Lord Mayor of London with ANA Challenge Coin

I decided to do a surprise visit to Sovereign Rarities. I thought I would be there five minutes or so. We ended up talking for over an hour. And to my surprise, Steve showed me a terrific collection of Maundy Money.

I ended up purchasing a 1977 complete Maundy set. Not only did it have the red and white traditional pouches. It also had the green pouch which contain the souvenir £.50.

Sovereign Rarities is a proud supporter of the ANA. I was able to leave them all challenge coins for themselves and staff. Very Welcoming!

Steve Hill, Tom Uram, Ian and Madeleine Goldbart
