Hello All!

I like this idea quite a bit. I've never bought any of these coins (even
though I do collect certain coins: Australian Kookaburra silver coins,
for example) but I would surely buy a coin commemorating Jim!

One step further: If we could find a mint willing to (re-)invest the money
they get from selling this coin or part of the money they get, in a plaque
(maybe this mint could also produce that plaque) for Jim, we would have
both: a coin + a plaque.

The money that comes from selling these coins could also be used to
reimburse the artist that Geoff mentioned for the sculpture that he or
she's going to create to commemorate Jim.
