Hi All,

Since the contribution of over one hundred Amateur Radio stamps from fifty 
different countries to the HHI Web Site, I am now curious about what else 
may be out there lying in the weeds just waiting to be rediscovered?

Does anyone know if any country has ever struck a coin, or commemorative or 
token depicting a piece of Ham Radio gear?

I "KNOW" that we have several Numismatic devotees out there, including yours 
truly! Get out those world coin guides guys and let's find out what, if any, 
countries have ever struck coins or tokens for our hobby.

Now there may be other items created to commemorate Amateur Radio, perhaps 
cups with matching saucers or tablecloths with matching napkins. It would be 
fascinating to learn what is out there paying tribute to our beloved hobby. 
So get busy and find out for us! Thanks and happy hunting!
