'Buffalo Stampede' Into Union Station: Adams National Bank Stands Ready With 2005 American Bison Nickels
WASHINGTON - PRNewswire-FirstCall - Feb. 24
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- On Tuesday, March 1, 2005, The Adams National Bank (NASDAQ:AANB) is proud to participate in the United States Mint's National Nickel Exchange, providing the public at face value ten tons, or approximately $100,000, of the new 2005 American Bison nickels. The American Bison nickel is the third design in the United States Mint's Westward Journey Nickel Series(TM), which began with the Peace Medal nickel, followed by the Keelboat nickel. A law passed by Congress and approved by President Bush in April 2003 authorized the redesign of the nation's five-cent coin for the first time since 1938.
The National Nickel Exchange will begin on Capitol Hill with a ceremonial presentation of the new nickel to the American People. The ceremony will feature a real American Bison and an American Indian performance honoring the event. Following this ceremony, The National Nickel Exchange will continue inside Union Station, where the public can exchange their bills for $2 rolls of new American Bison Nickels.
The new nickel will be released into circulation on February 28 through the Federal Reserve System. The National Nickel Exchange will be the first place the public can obtain the new five-cent coin. Adams Bank employees will be on hand from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the main hall of Union Station to meet the demand. $2 rolls will be available for cash exchanges until supplies are exhausted.
The Adams National Bank is focused on serving minorities, small businesses and not-for-profit organizations in the Washington, DC area. The Adams National Bank offers a full line of banking services including business and real estate loans, as well as deposit services.
