THE TO THE VAULT feuf Hobby And Your Neighbor's) fey Diek Palmer Miss Berte June 13 ti contest result day, 1 put the cards in a tag, shook thtfli tip, and drew out ten. then the left were shaken together and the place drawings Our first place winner was Bob Ai Krause of Femon. Bob will receive two old bank bills engraved by Rawdon, Wright and Hatch a century two types tfe represented. The sth, bill is engraved on the face only while the Canal Bank of New Orleans represents the type with designs on both These bills are representative of the engraver's art with many interesting vignettes. Second place was taken by Lester Blaln of Wesley and he will receive a presentable three cent piece dated 1867.

The 1060 Canadian dollar goes to Melvln Kern of Algona for third place. Charles Dunn, also of Algona, takes the 4th place packet of bills with the feature item being a very attractive piece of Mexican Revolutionary currency engraved by the American Batik Note Company. The Sth place packet goes to the 12 year old member of the Jergenson family of Aurora, Colo. 1 had two entries, but only Phil signed his name so I will send the packet to him and hope that younger brother will manage to get It, The feature bill Is the same Hungarian note on display at our Historical Society with a portrait of Louis Kossuth so the Jergensons as former Algonians can show the source of the county name. Other packets will be mailed to Mrs.

M. A. Sorllen of Bode, and Ed Crawford, Mrs. Roy Christensen, Mrs. E.

A. Schenck and Mildred Helderscheldt, all of Algona. Many thanks to all who entered the contest. Robert J. Krause of Fenton poses a difficult yet not uncommon question that always both- efs the avid ceiiectof who is Interested in Americana, Hi has saved some money and tikes antiques, stamps, currency, and coins.

The question is what he should buy, Weil, like them all, too, and often come up against the same situation, fho 1 both buy and sell currency, 1 can be objective since it's still a hobby rather than a business. Actually, if pleasure is the main motive, then it really wouldn't make much difference and only the Individual can make the final decision. 1 do think that interest in most fields is sustained by variety and, while be a temporary mania, completion once attained can be the prelude to boredom, since the thrill ol the search is now gone. If Investment is the motive, 1 would hesitate to answer as this is tricky. For investment, I recommend the collection of stock certificates of going corporations.

Combining the two, many collectors want something that gives them pleasure yet will be in sufficient demand so that if cash is needed a good portion of the cost can be recovered. If antiques are involved, get the assistance of someone who can advise as to the margin of markup involved. In some cases this may be overly high. Antiques also are subject to cycles of popularity. I have always favored type collecting for coins because these will always be in demand.

Gold is very favorably situated at the moment. The $10 and $20 pieces are protected by a high bullion value and all the values have a relatively small margin of markup. Reasonably nice specimens of old currency can still be purchased favorably, but this field Is gaining in popularity. Perhaps have nbted the currency section of the classified ads in the coin press is two to three times the size it was about year ago. U.

PLANT A PASTIME Great idea for fresh-out-ofschoolers: give a kiddy a private garden! Teaches (among other tHings) re- hpect for your own.

Dot the top well with butter; sprinkle with fresh, chopped chives. Twenty minutes in a 350-degree gas oven turns it into a steak's best friend.

(Glenn's Studio Photo) stamps of all types prior to the I930's in very fine condition always have been and always will be good property. None of this has been very specific, so by way of an actual recommendation, If you do not have a type set of gold, you could get most of with the exception of the $3 and I think that you will gain considerable collector satisfaction from It. If you have some gold, then I'd consider your type set of both coins and currency. That Tonga Gold Coin set certainly had an Interesting speculative history. A certain dealer took full page ads for a time moving the price up $10 each time from $20 to $50 a set.

Now I note that he has a smaller ad offering the set at $15, which shows that the actual collector demand is the main price factor, not the temporary speculator. This is likely a proper level which is about 3 times the new Issue price and the Issue should show a gradual, sensible appreciation.
