Dan made some additional Covid-19 Hard Times tokens available again on his site. I was able to grab what I needed at original issue price. Woo Hoo! Z http://www.dc-coin.com/index.aspx?page=3
I'm quite a bit behind posting up recent arrivals, so I figured I would add at least one tonight. Overall, I think I am a couple of dozen behind . . . . . Z . 2013 Battle of Lake Erie Bicentennial - Silver - mintage 250
Carr Alert! Updates on Dan's site. Circulated versions of his Flying Eagle and Native Head cents are available again. http://www.dc-coin.com/ Grab them while you can! I got me a few. Z

That obverse seems more circulated than the reverse in these photos. I like the look of the obverse -- it really looks like a coin that spent some time in commerce.
It's a rainy day here so I thought I put my FE in a slab. Wait the only cent size I have left is one the size of he old small ANACS slabs. Dang that won't do. Ahhh I have a bigger one with the wrong gasket...what the heck I'll merge them. Hmmm I had other things on my mind and here's the first attempt I'm not happy. A little off center OK so I'll do a little trimming to sort of centering it. The final product, I should be ashamed
Just a "heads-up for those who haven't grabbed a 2020 Covid-19 Hard Times Token yet, it looks like there are a few more available on Dan's website. Z http://www.dc-coin.com/index.aspx?page=3
And my first octagon . . . . . The next one, hopefully, will be an Owl . . . . . but an Eagle's not too bad . . . . . Z
Work isn't giving me much time to play these days, but I was able to take a "Father & Son" photo earlier today. A couple of my new arrivals. Z Father and Son Eagle Octagons (with mama Owl on the back)
My most recent KOTCT acquisition Z The 2010 Gary Burke Memorial KOTCT Medal - 63mm, 89 minted For a quick size comparison. The copper medal is 39mm . . . . . .
It's been too quiet. Where are all the Carr chasers . . . . . . ? Just received this one earlier this week. Z
I just picked up the 2015 Owl Octagon to complete the 6 year run. I don’t know how I missed it when it came out.
