Steve, I think you have Mark Twain
confused with Jean Shepherd, and
they haven't made a coin for him
yet. ;)
You don't have to love 'em.
You just have to buy 'em.
Or, you can donate to all four Mark
Twain sites at once and skip buying the
coins altogether. Click here, and help
the causes:

Collaborative fundraising made simple.
Thanks, all!
Cindy

I agree with Peter Salwen's critique of the
commemorative coins:
They look kinda cheesy.
What's up with pipe rather than cigar (if you're
gonna show Twain smoking).
And I could have done without the "in God We
Trust" unless they went ahead and added "ALL
OTHERS PAY CASH" ;-)
