Purchased a few Hawaiian Beauties

Yesterday, I took my father and son (they both reside on the island of Oahu) to a local coin show in Hawaii. The event was listed at the Hawaii State Numismatic Association web page. A limited number of dealers were present.

Don Medcalf (co-author of the book, Hawaiian Money, Standard Catalog, ISBN: 0962326305) had a table and I purchased a few Hawaiian medals from him. He invited me to visit his coin shop to look at his inventory. I will...later on during this vacation.

I picked up three Hawaii Statehood medals circa 1959/1960 at reasonable prices.

Just prior to my vacation I submitted 4 medals to NCS and 11 medals to NGC. NCS coins are "scheduled for grading". NGC places a status of "received" for the 11 medals. Hopefully, the coins will be shipped prior to the end of my vacation in December.
