A draw for a Roman coin at the Museum. The Covington Latin School's Museum ( in KY) was established by teacher Kelly Kusch for the school’s Open House. ACE graciously provided a coin to give away, so we had visitors fill out raffle forms. The prospective students were very excited by the chance to win a real, ancient coin.

The Museum was in the school Library. Teacher Kelly Kusch supplemented boards and coins with statues and books from her own collection, as well as the library’s. A couple of Kelly's students who had attributed coins were the docents for the Museum. Student coin presentations looped on the computers to the left of the picture. All in all visitors were very impressed and interested.
