    Ooh, I bet that would be an easy hack for some to add the half dollar. ;)

  3. My girlfriend paid for my PCGS submission which was really cool, and she got me a bookcase for all of those pesky numismatic books cluttering my place.

    Oh yeah, and I won the Coin Show Radio contest!!!!

    I got lots of great gifts, including a wonderful silver eagle from SilverStruck4, but more importantly I have the safety and health of my family.

    She is GORGEOUS! Did I say I wanted a puppy for Christmas? Yes, I did. Did I get one. No, I did not. I am looking everyday for the right one, to adopt, rescue, or buy. I'll know him/her when I see the right look in the eyes.

    Yours, (Hailey?) again, is a beauty!

    How many SD40 or SD40-2's at the head of that train? Nice layout.

    Just two for now. I'm still in the process of upgrading from a Christmas layout set up on the dining room table (which irritates my wife to no end) to a real ho 4X8 layout with scenery etc. (another hobby, God forbid) Finally did away with the LIFELIKE locos, rolling stock and track this year and replaced it all with Athearn stuff. The old saying "you get what you pay for" definetly applies. I'm very impressed with how much more smoothly the Athearn trains run.

    Thanks! I was wondering why my parents wouldn't let me convert my $5 mini fridge into a safe :D

    lol i think as collectors we should just convert a closet into our safe... no safe is ever big enough..LOL

    Nice Caz, looks like you had a good Christmas. I had a very good Christmas, got 3 silver dollars and a 2011 S ASE NGC MS 69 from my Grandpa and and a brand new laptop from they rest of my family. And my favorite gift a Etch A Sketch

    I completely agree. My aunt and uncle are gun collectors (hoarders in my opinion) and their safe is a closet. Nice great big Cannon safe that can be used as a panic room if it weren't filled with guns.

    And Tyler, Cool score! what year are the Silver dollars?
