The Kellogg Twenty is Coming Home

For the first time in about three decades the Kellogg Twenty will come back to Baltimore. The 154-year-old $20 gold coin was a unique California Gold Rush specimen, which, for a certain period of time, was owned by John Work Garrett, who was a Baltimore resident, as well as a diplomat. |

Well! Thank God for that. I always felt that Baltimore's fall from urban grace began when the Kellog Twenty abandoned Charm City for parts elsewhere. Now, I envision the day when Baltimore rises from second city status to reclaim its rightful seat at the side of God the Father. Baltimore, congratulations on your impending assumption into Heaven!!! |
