I missed this week's dinner of my Northern Virginia numismatic social group Nummis Nova because of a conflicting family birthday dinner. But Dave Schenkman attended, noting that "turnout was good, although a couple of members bailed out because of crappy weather and worse traffic."

Dave kindly sent along images of his newps - a group of eight rare Colorado mining notes purchased from the recent Stacks sale. Thanks! -Editor

"These are extremely rare; probably 2-3 known of each, and at least one is unique."
