Coined For Money: Round-Up Feb. 18-24, 2013

New coins, old coins, and current coins are disappearing and reappearing everywhere. Well maybe not everywhere but in certain locations so read on and find out where you get to join in on the fun.

The Oglala Sioux Tribe is minting the first ever Sioux Nation dollar coin and you can help design it. Contest March 15, 2013 so if you are a coin designer I suggest you give it a try.

Passing through Baltimore then stop by the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Baltimore Expo, March 14 – 17, 2013 and see one of the famous 1913 Liberty V nickels.

South Africa has stopped minting nickels or 5 cents pieces not because of cost but it seems that the market is flooded with them. As predicted the public and private community is getting stuff confused and is banning, rejecting, and not using them causing other problems.

New at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City is the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Hall and you can buy the souvenir medal too.
