The RCNA's annual convention is virtual this year. While I'll miss the in-person normalcy, I think it's a nice change that anyone can attend without the restraint of travel. The seminars and most of the meetings are free and open to everyone, not just members.
Below is a link to convention information from the website:
https://www.rcna.ca/2021/
I'll post more, like the Zoom instructions for attending, here if there's interest.

3) Geoffrey Bell Auctions
• Used by the Toronto Coin Expo twice a year and they have a few others as well.
• These guys are the most expensive! It is a 20% buyers premium plus 3% if paying with PayPal or credit card, plus $5 for "packaging and processing".
• On past auctions they do not say what the winning bid was, only the starting price and estimate.
• Generally a very good selection of items.
These guys are the most transparent. For past auctions, all you have to do is sign into iCollector - this is something iCollector has implemented, I believe, not the auction house. And here's a tip, if you email bids in advance, the buyers' premium is lower. |

| Thanks for the replies. I did check with the person that made the CNA ebulliten reference and he doesn't recall the hoard either. I do see there's a reference to it in two April 2003 Coin World magazines (online snippet via the Newman Numismatic Portal), but I don't know anyone that would have it lying around and Coin World doesn't seem to have an online archive. |

| I've seen a number of coins, 5 and 10-cent silver it seems, with reference to the Doaktown Hoard. What and where was this? Part of the reason for asking is because there's a Doaktown in NB. |

To the person asking to use pictures yes you can but I have to credit my wife for showing me how to take a close up picture I never knew how to focus on a phone until she showed me.
Thank you! This will go in NumisNotes, which is a national newsletter, so RCNA members in Winnipeg can keep an eye out. If you want any further information, feel free to let me know and I'll drop a note. |
