As a former history and geography teacher, I envy you to a certain degree. But, I think I could do without the celebration you described.

Richard, you haven't seen enough then. That kind of ceremonies are very common in eastern civilisations too.
Turks, Arabs have that custom, actually muslims have a so called "holyday" for that

Yesterday was good news bad news good news day
The good news is I am in a real hotel for a few days with dial up no less.
The bad news is we have had a major equipment failure and the job will be delayed by a week or two while we wait for parts to be flown in form the old USA.
The good news is I go to the bank and got some of the bimetalic 100 cedi coins
These coins are BU but they are some of the worst minting I have ever seen. I guess when the face value of the coin is a around a cent and they are about the size of a quarter there is not a lot of profit in taking the time to mint a quality product. I have about 100 coins so I should be able to fill everyones request.
