    Post your coin or currency-related birthday, anniversary, Christmas, etc gifts here! With Christmas just 6 days away, this thread should see some good traffic. :)

    Happy Holidays!

    I'm hoping I get some good stuff for Christmas, or some money to buy some good stuff. I've gotten a 1996 ASE, 2009 Abe Lincoln commem., and some other randoms as gifts. Everything is great, just nothing tooooo interesting yet!

    Does anyone have suggestions for a 2011 coin calendar? PCGS seems to be the only one I found.

    The only time I would get a coin as a gift is if I gave one to myself.
    No one else who would even consider giving me a gift would know enough to give me a coin.

    Coinmaster1, your family wouldn't happen to be considering adoption anytime soon, would they? :) A very Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    Nice gifts everyone! Love the seated Lugia. Sadly my mom said that my coins related Christmas list was boring and I could get most of it one my own =[ oh well. Still got some wonderful presents.

    yea its great. a dealer that we goto alot had gotten a few new pieces that he probably didnt show to many other people. my dad got that MS coin at a AU price. its a bummer that your mom didnt take your wanting coins for christmas seriously. i cant think of much anything else that i would want.

    Ironically, my family is actually in the process of adopting, so I guess you can say yes! :D

    Happy holidays CT! No coin related gifts, yet! Xmas gifts go pre 25th and post around my parts. Lots of gift cards and dough that could go to such a gift though! Rolls I'm thinking! I've never bought my own rolls from the bank strictly for looking for coins I would collect! Excited much.

    brotheratom Witty coin reference here

    I got a 1989 mint set (birthday year), an '89 proof set and the 2011 Bluebook.
     
  21. I recieved a 1969d $.50, 1942 & 1964 $.25, and a 1959 $.10 from my girlfriend's mother (from circulation at a grocery store). My girlfriend gave me Danscos for my uncirculated set of P&D Statehood & Territories set and my Kennedy half unc set. I gave a 2006 Silver Eagle PCGS PR69 DCAM to my girlfriends son (birth year).
