April 26, 2010 - Minutes of the Indianapolis Coin Club Meeting.
Open - The meeting was called to order at 7:00 PM by the Club President, Jim Roehrdanz. 34 people
signed the attendance book. We met at the usual place, the Northside Knights of Columbus Hall, 2100
st
East 71 Street.
The Treasurer’s report was accepted as reported in the newsletter. The Secretary’s report for March
was read and accepted.
Visitors – Al Boulanger and Danny Aiello were the Guests. Al is a District Director for the Indiana StateNumismatic Association (ISNA) and Danny Aiello was our Speaker for the evening.
Old Business – Donn Wray, our Vice President, said the topic for next month would be titled “Crack orKeep,” the decision of whether to “crack” (break out) certified coins from their holders or keep them, as is.
He will be the speaker and will bring several coins for the members to examine and decide whether to“crack or keep” them. The object of breaking a coin out of its certified holder is to send it to the grading
company again, hoping to get a higher grade.
ICC Board Member, Mike White, said he had finally found a new (2010) dime in circulation, having found
one at a McDonalds store. Mark Eberhardt said that the mint had finally released them to the public, so wewould be seeing them in general circulation, soon. Club Secretary, Vinton Dove, said that in his experience, the McDonalds on I-70 at New Stanton, PA, was the first place that new coins are available eachyear.
New Business – The Club Treasurer, Don King, asked all members who were ANA members to give him
their ANA number so that the Club could receive a discount on its annual dues to ANA. He also had a few
PNG passes for those members who would be at the Central State Numismatic Society’s Coin Show inMilwaukee, and a few 2010 Cents for ICC members.
The Educational Program – Al Boulanger introduced the speaker, Danny Aiello, who is a Secret Service
agent. Danny spoke on his experiences as an agent. He started his employment in 1998 and was transferred to Indianapolis in 2008. He said that as an agent, he was trained how to identify counterfeit currency. Agents were also assigned to protect certain civil servants, that practice having been started in the1901 after the assassination of President McKinley. The Secret Service was changed from an agency of theTreasury Department to the Homeland Security Department in 2002. He spoke for quite a long time, andthe question and answer period provoked several long discussions. It was an exciting and very interestingpresentation and was enjoyed by all.
After the break, the 50/50 Drawing was run by Club Treasurer, Don King.
Auction – The Club’s monthly auction was conducted by Joe Boling, with Ron Jackson, Jim Roehrdanz,
Bob Bettcher, Vinton Dove and Dave Reid assisting. 21 sheets of up to five lots each were included andmost of the lots sold.
The club adjourned at 9:00 PM.
Respectfully submitted, Vinton DoveAs of Wednesday May 19th I have not received a treasurers report.
As I have a deadline to meet and make sure all the mailed copies arereceived before the meeting. I must go ahead and publish thenewsletter without the report. The treasurer will provide a copy ofthis months treasurers report at the meeting to be read and accepted.
