To honor the reconstruction of the London Bridge in Lake Havasu and provide a fund raising vehicle for the many charitable and community projects of the London Bridge Rotary Club, the club sponsored the release of the first "Havasu Dollar" in October 1971.
Each October since then, a new London Bridge Rotary Commemorative Coin has been released during London Bridge Days, the annual anniversary celebration of the dedication of the London Bridge in Lake Havasu City.
THIS 37th ISSUE CELEBRATING "FISHING ON THE COLORADO" IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ONLY $5.00 + SHIPPING When a new coin is released, the coin that was issued the year before becomes part of the very popular past issues Collector Set and is no longer available at the original issue price. The first four coins were designed commercially, and the remainder of the coins have been designed by several local artists. Many of these coins have appreciated significantly in value. The current "street price" of our most sought after #2 (1972-73) coin is $156! Our latest coin, the 37th issue, celebrating our "Fishing on the Colorado" is available for $8.00 + shipping.

| The Rotarians of the London Bridge Rotary Club offer their services each weekend in the English Village to greet visitors to the bridge area and to offer for sale the London Bridge Commemorative Coin as a souvenir of their visit. The internationally collected Commemorative Coin has been increasing in value each year. They are highly sought after as popular and legitimate collector's items and used as gifts and awards. This very successful project has allowed the London Bridge Rotary Club to contribute thousands of dollars to many community and charitable causes. | ||
