Reader urges the Aiken Standard to press new ownership and local leaders on the Aiken Mall’s progress. The letter questions commitment, requests interviews with the chamber head and city manager, and critiques local politics, spending, and street safety.
The Stephen James CSRA Coin Club in Aiken hosted its annual show at the H. Odell Weeks Activities Center featuring recent mintages and historic pieces dating back to ancient figures. Dealers from Georgia and South Carolina participated, including David Cashin of Columbia who recounted buying a 1766 copper love token engraved with his wife’s name, a remarkable find that astonished him.
The photo gallery notes a rare early coin from Lydia dating to around 600 B.C. captured by collectors including Orne and Cashin. The event drew modest traffic, with attendees seeking pieces beyond what's available. The annual show, run by a small club founded in 2001, honors a local dealer who died in 2000. Bill Bengtson of Aiken Communications contributed coverage.
