Our first President !

Happy Birthday to our first and certainly one of our greatest presidents George Washington . A man who after the war of independence had the means and respect of the army to seize power for himself but quietly relinquished it , even after he was unanimously elected to be president he could have proclaimed himself as "king" but humbly served two terms to set an example for all others that followed .

In his honor today lets see your best Washington coins and relics !

Great my friend. Thank you for reminding this.

I'm from Illinois. What can I say!!
(and yes, I realize this is 4 months late)

Del that's a fantastic find!! Probably just par for the course for you! Don that's about what I find related to Washington!
