Penny for your thoughts

In one of my first blogs, I mentioned Joel's attic collections. We have a coffee tin filled with coins...the earliest is a penny from 1889(?). Then there is a bag filled with International money. Tonight, we went to Barnes & Noble tonight for fun excursion in an air conditioned locale. I found little books designed for collecting coins. Marissa and I have been sorting through Joel's pennies to place the nicest ones in the books. Maybe we will move on to nickles, dimes, then quarters. Joel thinks that he as a board somewhere in London that displays the coins. As far as I'm aware, Marilyn has completely purged her house of Joel's childhood memorabilia. I hope that it wasn't lost!
