Without coin shows or club meetings to go to, my Numismatic Diary has been set aside for a while. One highlight is always the meeting of my northern Virginia numismatic social group, Nummis Nova. The dinners are always great fun and feature the sharing of interesting numismatic items from our members' collections. My diaries of the meetings include a number of images of the exhibited material.

This week I reached out to our members and they've shared some of their recent acquisitions and other great items virtually.

Early Odd Denomination Notes
Dave Schenkman acquired these two great scrip notes in a recent Heritage sale.

Rare Mining Notes
Dave shared these two rare mining notes as well, also from the recent Heritage sale. The Cherokee Iron Co. was in Cedartown, GA., and Wilcox Mining Co. was in Emory Mines, TN.

Yankee Robinson Quadruple Show Counterstamp
Dave Schenkman also shared this counterstamp he picked up in the recent Holabird sale. Thanks!
