    Is it just me or do Gold Krugerrands make anyone else think of Lethal Weapon 2 every time they see one?

    Okay, I admit this was an in-joke. Somebody should be ROTFL right now!
    Present arrived but I'll wait until Christmas Day before I open it. If Santa really sent me gold then the joke's on me LOL

    Pictures as promised. My Santa got me 24 - 10 denomination coins from around the world. A few were not labeled and were fun to research. Also learned about KM numbers because I'm generally not a world collector. With this gift it jump started a project for next year. Going to try to simply complete a circulated world coin set in 10 denomination from A-Z.

    Thanks for the card as well. Merry Christmas.

    Just got home from work after a 12 hour shift and Santa was waiting.
    Ain't no way I 'm gonna wait. Never planned to. Santa knows the only thing I like better than silver, is Mexican Silver, and he delivered. He also kicked in a nicely toned Franklin Half to boot. Thanks Santa! I can go to bed happy tonight.

    Sorry for being so late, is there still anyway to enter for it? I kind of doubt it though with only 2 days before Christmas, I have been fogeting to enter for awhile. Something tells me I will have to wait for next year.

    Sorry coinman, you're a little late to the party this year. The deadline was a few weeks ago.

    Depends on how good of gifts you give. If it is something awesome, I can do an exchange with you ;)

    Has everyone received their gift? I know that we have a few nervous santas that have not seen an update from their recipient quite yet. I you have not received you gift yet, please let me know. A bunch of santas have sent me tracking information and I haven't had a chance to send them all out yet but may have yours.

    Well, I was expecting several packages today and opened mine before I knew what it was.

    The first is one of my favorites, a nicely toned 68-D which is a date I don't have yet.

    Then a nice '55 with no distractions :

    Next are a few world coins. This one looks like a gate or door.

    And to top it off, my favorite from the group, an off-center Washington!

    Very pleased with my Christmas gifts this year! Thank you Secret Santa! Thanks Kirk for putting this on again, it's always fun.
