CELEBRITY COLLECTOR: TED TURNER?

  Don Calucci forwarded an article from the February issue of
  Inc. magazine about businessman Ted Turner.  The author
  notes:

  "As a child, growing up in Savannah, Ga., the young Ted had
  always had interests: Naturalism was one. History another.
  Collecting coins was yet another. His favorite coin: the buffalo
  nickel with its evocative, historical images of Native Americans
  and wild bison. As a man of early middle age with the
  wherewithal to do just about anything, Turner had begun to
  buy land out west and breed bison."

  To read the full article, see Ted Turner Story

  We've discussed celebrity numismatists in previous
  E-Sylum issues, but I don't believe Ted Turner's name
  has come up before.  I anyone aware that he has a
  current interest in the hobby?
