Bellaire Coin Club Upcoming Events & Program Schedule

The Bellaire Coin Club is a recognized leader in numismatic education in the community. Our regular educational programs are designed to convey interesting facts and insightful stories about coins, paper money, and numismatic history, all in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. Many of the presentations are enhanced through the use of our club’s Video Microscope, which allows the presenter to show, up close, many features on a coin via a live color video display, allowing the audience to instantly share the history behind the coin. Each presentation is held at our regular twice monthly meetings, at the Bellaire City Library, 5111 Jessamine, and will typically last between 20-40 minutes.

Greetings to one and all of the Bellaire faithful. This note is going out a little late, but at least it is going out. It has been a wonderful weekend filled with nice weather, so of course that has to be loused up by a Monday. At least we have each other as a mutual support group to get through that horrible change.

And support each other we shall. We have survived another show, and it seems to have been a raging success. But before we get too lazy, let's not forget that we have a summer show coming up in August. It's OK to take a few days off, but then we have to once again start taking care of the details that will make the August show as successful as our Coin Week Show. Until then, we will have a Show & Tell for this meeting. Bring in one the treasures you were able to acquire at the show. Brag on your shopping abilities that allowed you to spot that particular item. Or, for those that had to miss the show (shame on you!), tell us about another item that has crossed your path and has ended in your clutches. This is braggin' time - bring something to brag about.

The meeting will start about 6:15, maybe a little later. It all depends on how much we have to do, and how many lots are in the auction. No door prize drawing will happen before 6:30, so don't worry about missing anything if you can't get there by 6:15. The business will be followed by the S&T. This will then be followed by the usual auction and the much anticipated ceremonial flashing of the lights. The Usual Suspects Numismatic Study Group will then reconvene at Jax Grill. Don't forget the informal bourse before the meeting.

If this can be pulled off, then happy days will be here again, and the evil that is Monday shall be overcome. Come join your fellow coin nerds this Monday.
