Dogs steal the show at YN program

The Young Numismatists program held March 31 at the Manchester New Hampshire Coin & Currency show was a success, said Richard J. Hand Jr.

Hand expressed his thanks to the New England Numismatic Association, Littleton Coin Company (Coin Folders), ANACS (Sample Slabs) and the U.S. Mint (book markers and other items) for their donations.

Past and present presidents of the American Numismatic Association also showed their support. Gary Adkins gave needed rolls of coins, Hand said.

Adkins provided 1917, 1924, and 1930-D Lincoln wheat ear cents. After putting them in 2×2 holders, the YNs were taught grading.

They also played games like stack the cents, and there are free raffles.

Near the end of the YN event, Hand’s wife was asked to come by. Hand said he asked the YNs present if they would like to meet their son and daughter.

Jethro is three years and Jettee is three months. Naturally, when the kids saw that they were dogs, they stole the show.

Traditional craft of India: Handicrafts on Stamps Part II

Despite rapid social and technological changes in India, the use of craft products is an integral aspect of an Indian’s social life.  Handicraft aims at processing materials by hand with hand tools. The result of this can be a useful thing or a decorative item. The tradition of making handicrafts is deeply frozen in the social norms of Indian society. In any of the handmade products, a crafter transfers an aspect of their cultural heritage to the ideas, forms, material and manufacturing process of the craft. They’re skilled employees whose profession relies on manual skills. Their main tools are the power of work strategies. Handicraft contains plenty of implicit data that grows every year, along with skills. The order and apprentice system has been widely used to transfer skills and implicit data. This aspect of handicraft is recognized by India Post. In 2018, the Indian Postal Service has issued a series of handicrafts on stamps. The illustrated handicraft in these stamps series is
