This past Friday I had the opportunity of receiving an invitation from Carlos Kearns who has a working relationship in London. He invited me to this very formal dinner.

Of course, I could not pass up the opportunity to promote the ANA. Probably against protocol, however without creating any international incident, I was able to make several presentations.

I decided to do a surprise visit to Sovereign Rarities.I thought I would be there five minutes or so. We ended up talking for over an hour. And to my surprise, Steve showed me a terrific collection of Maundy Money.

I ended up purchasing a 1977 complete Maundy set. Not only did it have the red and white traditional pouches. It also had the green pouch which contain the souvenir £.50.

Sovereign Rarities is a proud supporter of the ANA. I was able to leave them all challenge coins for themselves and staff.Very Welcoming!
