If you are looking for a unique gift idea for that certain coin or history enthusiast, you should consider the award-winning biography by Rusty Goe, about Cason City Mint superintendent James Crawford.

For the next five years, one generous member of the Carson City Coin Collectors of America has sponsored 20, free one-year memberships to children 12-years old and under. That’s a total of 100 free memberships pledged by this devoted member!

Rusty Goe will give a PowerPoint presentation at a Carson City Historical Society lecture series meeting on Wednesday October 21, 2009.

The start time is 6:00 p.m.

The location is the Carson City Library, 900 N. Roop St., Carson City, NV.

The topic is “Harold M. Budd, Sr. – The Ambassador of Carson City Coin Collecting in the First Half of the 20th Century.”

Please look at the updated menu of features on the left side of this Web site. You’ll notice that just under Mintage Figures, there's a new section titled “Auction Prices.” Click on it and you'll see actual auction prices realized for each of the 111 date-denomination combinations in a complete set of Carson City coins.

After literally months of planning schedules, coordinating volunteers, and publicizing the event, we are proud to announce that the 2009 Annual C4OA Meeting and Carson City Coin Symposium lived up to, and exceeded all expectations.

Following is an ad that appeared in the July 2009 issue of The Numismatist to publicize the C4OA's Carson City Coin symposium scheduled for August 6 at the ANA's World's Fair of Money convention in Los Angeles. Special speakers include Bill Bugert, John McCloskey, Darrell Low and Rusty Goe.

As you might have noticed, there has been a lot of construction occurring on the new C4OA website. We’ve been adding new threads to the Discussion Board, publishing new posts in the News and Articles section, and steadily working behind the scenes to create a user-friendly, attractive, and versatile website where all “CC”-enthusiasts can thrive. As of today, June 9, 2009, we have added a new “wing” to this website, and we believe that this is one of the most special additions yet.

If you’ve had your nose buried in the most recent edition of Curry’s Chronicle, you should already know that this August is going to be a very eventful month for C4OA. Only two weeks after we have our annual meeting and Carson City Coin Symposium in Los Angeles on August 6th at the 2009 ANA World’s Fair of Money, we’ll also be having a 2009 C4OA Carson City Regional Meeting at the Carson City coin show, hosted by the Nevada State Museum.
