Coin of the Day 10-31-18
After yesterday's internet issues, it's been nice to have things going more smoothly today.
I started a series on some brass rounds that I got that were made by the Alaska Frontier Mint. If you aren't caught up, here are Post 1, Post 2, Post 3, Post 4, Post 5, Post 6, Post 7, and Post 8
Today it's the Whale!
Whale watching is a big business in Alaska. There are tours aplenty to head out and spot a pod of whales. Especially desirable are opportunities to photograph the whales when they're diving or jumping.
Diving
Jumping
See, they're pretty! And it's fun to see water creatures flying through the air.
Lastly, the final obligatory picture of the reverse of the token, The Big Dipper!
Missing Piece
There was one more piece in the series, but it was missing, so I have an incomplete set. The final token was a salmon. I'm not sure what the story was about how it was missed, but I'm still happy to have gotten most of the set and gotten to share them with you.
I know this series was a little different. What did you think of it?
- Have you ever gone whale watching?
Those are pretty sweet coins. Have you checked eBay for the one you are missing?
Yeah, I looked all over the place. Even on the website for the company that makes them. Still can't find them. I may end up calling the shop that sells them and see how much it would cost to get one shipped.

howdy sir Blondie, I liked this series, very unusual tokens, at least for me, and educational the way you presented them.
