Harmonica Pillar of the Community Canada 1118 Posts	Posted 08/26/2016 09:10 am Hey everyone, I picked up an interesting piece of scrip at the coin shop in Sussex, NB. On one side it says "Numismatic Adventure Expedition Certficate One Souvnir" Then it is stamped Moncton, NB E1C 1H8. I looked up the postal code for The Coin Cabinet in Moncton and that is their postal code. Here is where it gets interesting (to me at least), the back of the note has a list of destinations. Between Canada, France and America all the places listed can be reached by either the North American Atlantic Ocean or the Ottawa Peninsula. Was this some sort of Numismatic cruise ship or something coin guys did as a hobby on their own. I can't find anything on google, ebay or C.C.F. . It is an interesting note to say the least. Here is a list of destinations. Catawba Island Cornwall Baie-Comeau Labrador City Churchill Falls Happy Valley-Goose Bay Blanc Sablon St Barbe Gander Fortune St. Pierre and Miquelon Swift Current Saint John's Argentia Sydney Charlottetown Halifax Bathurst Rimouski Ottawa Port Clinton If anybody has some I would love to hear about it.

"Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 08/27/2016 12:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I don't see your exact cruise on the interwebs, but evidently the ANA did at least one coin-themed cruise: http://www.foundcollection.com/1_27...7285b1_1.htm Maybe someone on CCF attended?

Harmonica Pillar of the Community Canada 1118 Posts	Posted 08/27/2016 12:10 pm DBM, there is a Swift Current in Newfoundland as well. It is an ocean front settlement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swift...and_Labrador spence, I will get it scanned here when I have a chance. I will be in Moncton in a few weeks so I may ask about it when in the city. Report this Post to the Staff

ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 09/02/2016 2:27 pm have you contact the coin cabinet in Moncton? one would think they would be the best place to start? Report this Post to the Staff
Harmonica Pillar of the Community Canada 1118 Posts	Posted 09/02/2016 3:20 pm Not yet, ace. I will be at the world's largest garage sale in Moncton selling coins so I do plan to bring it to the Coin Cabinet and ask about it. Thank you for the suggestion. Hopefully my trip will get me to the bottom of this. Report this Post to the Staff
