Dear Rod & The Numismatic Education Team:
After craving a numismatic membership for over a year, we finally gave our nine year olc
Tim, a years membership in your organization.
I wanted to send you some of his 201 3-2014 school journal entries from this year to shar
how alive and well the future of coin collecting is with the next generation. While writing
spelling are a struggle with Tim, to say he is interested in coin collecting is an understate
We are grateful to your organization for not only providing a rich selection of reading mal
for our son (he pours over your older publications that we have found at coin shows) but
sustaining the wonderful Money Museum in Colorado Springs and most of all creating a
community around a really interesting and inspiring hobby.
Kind Regards,
Susan Churchill - Tims Mom.
PS - Im not sure if his journal entries qualify for your Collect Ancient Coins collections,
entries might be a little too rough around the edges, but if they do, I know Tim would be
appreciative to learn how to earn an ancient coin.
