Texas Ranger's Hall of Fame Commemorative Coin Set

I thought that I would share pictures of a set of commemorative coins sold in 1973 to honor the Texas Ranger's.

Very cool set. Lots of history there.

 

Kool!

 

Gee, I didn't know they had a baseball team in 1841.

They lost to the Kansas City Bandits in Game 7.

 

When I first saw the post, I was wondering how the Texas Rangers could be in the Hall of Fame in 1973. They had been in Texas for only a year and were stinking up the American League. Ah, though, the REAL Texas Rangers.. .

 

When these boys came to town, they could draw an audience.

 

Note: Not coins, silver rounds

 

Here are more of the Ranger's and proof that you should never put a piece of paper inside a coin case and touching a coin (or silver round)!

 

A neat nod to history there. Maybe a tenuous connection here, a sterling canadian commem of the RCMP. Lousy picture, the marks are not on the coin.

 

I spent a couple of years in Ontario and loved it there. It seemed like the 51st state to me. Sorry if I'm offending any of my Canadian friends by that.

 

Was expecting to see Chuck Norris...
