Norwich hosts coin show this weekend
NORWICH – The Norwich Area Coin, Collectibles and Jewelry show will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 12 in the Howard Johnson’s Lobby. To bolster interest in the event, Brian Barre, the owner of Norwich Coin and Currency, will be putting one or more rare coins into circulation the week of Nov. 6. One or more local shoppers will receive the coins with their change when they shop at local, down town merchants.
“It’ll probably be a quarter or a Lincoln cent,” Barre said, “with a value of $100 or more.” The person who receives the change will have several options, they can choose to keep the coin, or to sell it back to Barre at the coin show. Of course there is also the possibility that the coin will go unnoticed, and wind up in a vending machine somewhere.
Barre does not seem anxious about this possibility. “It’s gonna be fun for everybody,” Barre said. “Fun for the community and fun for the merchants.”
Barre has been operating the Coin and Currency shop since June. He is happy with the community support he has received so far. “I believe the city will support a coin shop,” Barre said.
Barre has been working as a full time coin collector since 2001, when he retired from Procter and Gamble. His shop offers several services to the customers, including appraisals, supplies, and many collectibles in a variety of price ranges.
28 tables of coins, currency, jewelry and collectibles will be available at the show. Admission will cost $1. For more information about the show you can call (607) 336-9054. For more information about Norwich Coin and Currency, visit the web site at www.norwichcoinandcurrency.com.
