Just browsing the latest edition of my alumni magazine and was surprised by an article on Robert Ganz and his coin.

For those with an interest, it's on page 25 and 26.

Hello fellow alumnus! Thanks for posting the link.....the Record article was a lot of fun to do, but no, I do not scream if I get a spider on me.

Did Colville get a Record article for his Centennial coins? ha! <BG> tongue firmly (and humbly)in cheek.

Probably not given the statement many people believe he made with his work in Tweedie Hall. You may recall that the mural's most compelling feature is a horse's ass.

I saw it many times having lived in Trueman House from 1983-1986.

Go Mounties!

Yeah, interesting

Nice coin, the mintage isn't hight, presentable package...and the coin is still available at the mint.

Probably the price shouldn't be $69, but around $54, like 1/2oz Penny.

Off topic CC, but then we were there at the same time. Basement Thornton for me. Left in 88.

We definitely knew some of the same people.

Small world.
