Same here, that doesn't mean I haven't shaken it a couple times. Sounds like an old rattler slab.

 

Don’t judge me. I was weak.

 

Can't go wrong with a brittania.

 

Less than 48 hours hanging in there!

 

Nothing here. No worries. I’ll get it when I get it. Mail here is absolute s*** why i never ever send anything that needs to get delivered usps anymore

 

My mom has given me coin gifts nothing special. I did give my nephew a Silver Eagle after he achieved Eagle Scout status. A Silver Eagle for an Eagle Scout is what I wrote on the card.

 

My mailman and post office has been so bad I now have packages delivered to my work office instead of my apartment. I've been dealing with theft as well. The other day I got a Christmas card with a $250 Amazon gift card in it. Idiot mailman leaves it on the shelf below the mailboxes instead of putting it bin the mailbox. I filed a complaint with USPS.

 

I got mail delivered twice this whole week. Once at 10:30 pm. Once at 6:30 am. And it was mostly all garbage. A couple bills. A check from a customer that took almost 2 weeks last week my roommate got a package and i got a hardware order I’d put in several weeks ago. They’re beyond worthless. I send absolutely everything ups or fedex. That way I know it’ll get there. And the cost basically the same. Sent 2 packages. One to the Midwest one to Louisiana. Cost was $14 for one 19 for the other. And both as big or bigger than a large priority box

 

All the little elves are still snuggled in their beds so I seized the opportunity to tear into my package.

The envelope was covered in cool old stamps. I know a young man that collects stamps so this envelope will be going to a youngsters stamp collection.



My secret Santa included a card with a Venn diagram (had to look that one up!)….. He saw that I am primarily a US collector that has recently… Well let’s just say “diversified…


I got nine coins NINE!! That were minted in the US for other territories/nations. The Panamanian piece with Balboa is uber-cool!



Thank you Secret Santa!!

 

Even today they are pretty much the same. The 10th and quarter coins will work as dimes and quarters in US vending machines.

 

Thank you, Secret Santa. I opened this A.M. My first Britannia in my collection and a nice oz. of copper. Thank you!

 

Coins minted for other countries but minted in the US are really a neat subset to have.

 

Thank you Secret Santa. I must have been good this year.

The 2 Christmas rounds are cool. I like anything Christmas, especially if it has a Santa Claus on it. The silver round is similar to the ones put out by the Franklin Mint but I don't see there mark. It is marked .999 so that is impressive. Really impressed with the hobo nickel and the graded buffalo. Santa outdid himself.

Thanks again.
