Luckily I work for a charity. My not-for-profit sector salary will cover all my numismatic purchases in no time! #LolSob
Coin of Note is a personal project to share #numismatic information & images of #coin or #exonumia (#tokens, #medals, #medallions) I enjoy. I love to learn about history & try to include interesting info. I hope you enjoy it! Always up for a numismatic chat :)Participant in #SaturdayNightCoinShow, #MondayMedal, #TokenTuesdayI try to remember to use hashtags like #coins, #numismatics, #numismatist (someone who studies coins).Saint Eligius, Pray for us.#fedi22
