It's actually the Smithsonian Institution.

For the record, I didn't write that, oly did.  For some reason that still
mystifies, sometimes I have to separate my reply to him and others
with --------------- and sometimes I don't.  There's no consistency.

I was aware of the error upon subequent read, but there's no way to
correct it after it's up. We were just there in March 2008 (The Mueum
of American History is closed for renovations! Perhaps it is reopened
by now.).

It's actually a "Museum". The "s" was added by an anonymous donor who
made millions selling coins by calling them "just a whisker away from"
a higher grade.
