At the meeting, we will be accepting nominations for all officer and board positions. If you wish to become a more active member in our coin club, please consider taking a position. There will be at least two open Board positions so we will need at least a couple of you to step up! The Buena Park Coin Show is the weekend after our meeting and the Verdugo Hills club show is two weeks later. Check out all of the upcoming shows on Page 5. Finally, be sure to check out the raffle prizes listed on Page 3. Also bring your coins for show & tell and auction too. See you all on Friday, Mike

It’s about time for another meeting of the Glendale Coin Club! This month, we have a program on Understanding Mint Marks which should be of interest to most collectors. Another program by an active member of the club which is always fun! Our meeting is the last chance to order 2015 Glendale Coin Club medals. The design is now final and we will be submitting our one and only order following the March meeting. If you are unable to attend the meeting and still wish to order medals, please call or email me to order and arrange payment. Extra medals will not be ordered so be sure to have your payments in at the meeting. See Page 6 for more information.

March’s Program... Understanding Mint Marks

On Coins

This month, Ed Quon will be presenting a short program on mint marks. Knowing what mint marks are and where to locate them is an important aspect of coin collecting. Sometimes this small mark on a coin can make it highly valued. In this presentation, you will get learn about the history and purpose of mint marks and will get see where to find mint marks on various types of coinage. We hope that everyone finds this program interesting!

2015 Glendale Coin Club Medals...

As previously mentioned, we have again commissioned Daniel Carr to strike medals for our club. Daniel Carr is the designer of the New York and Rhode Island statehood quarters and his company owns a surplus coin press from the Denver Mint. He did a great job with our 2014 medals. Medals will be struck in copper, silver and gold. Final orders and payment will be due at our March 13 meeting and we expect delivery by our May meeting. The obverse will be the same as our 2014 medals, featuring the reverse design of the 1925 California Diamond Jubilee Half Dollar surrounded by our club name in incused lettering. The reverse designed will be based on the cap/rays/stars design of the Pacific Company $5 gold piece and will be dated 2015. The design has now been finalized and is shown below.

All active club members who attend a meeting during 2015 will receive one copper medal FREE! (1 medal per person, 2 medals per family membership)

Additional medals are priced as follows:

39mm Copper Medal = $10 each

39mm Silver .999 One Ounce Medal ("ONE TROY OZ. 999 SILVER" marked on edge) = $30 each

39mm Gold .999 50 Gram Medal ("50 GRAMS 999+ GOLD" marked on edge) approx. 1.6 troy oz. gold = $2350 each (price includes ANACS certification)

Please note that the final prices are subject to adjustment in the event silver and gold prices substantially change by the time our order is placed in mid-March.
