Hello,
Some time ago I went to a museum in Williamsburg, VA and saw an impressive collection of colonial currency. It did not mean much to me then, but it does now. While looking up the museum's name, I learned that they have a wonderful online slideshow of the coins on display. I do now know if this is every coin there, but it is enough to satisfy me. This makes for a great educational tool as well, and covers many coins I never knew existed. I would sure love to dig some of these!

I hope you all enjoy this as much as I have,
Anthony
