Girl Scout Coin - This one is a loser and winner!
February 3, 2014 @ 3:00 PM
Sure you wonder what I mean.... well here is the story....
The Girl Scouts of the USA Centennial Commemorative Coin Act, signed into law in 2009, authorized the minting of up to 350,000 silver dollar coins in commemoration of the yearlong celebration of our 100th anniversary. On September 22, 2012, Girl Scouts of the USA unveiled the design of the coin at the Gala 100th Anniversary Experience Exhibition Preview and Dinner Under the Stars, hosted by Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas, with Connie L. Lindsey, their National President, and Anna Maria Chávez, their CEO.
So far...So good, well not so fast....
Sales totaled just 35 percent of the congressionally authorized number of coins for the program.
