Everyone in my family knows I'm addicted to coins. So here's what I got: 1 year subscription to the greysheet weekly. 1 year subscription to Coin World magazine. A $40 gift certificate to a favorite coin store.
I didn't get anything numismatic related. the subject was touched upon, and the resulting course of action was that in the future money would be sent to me with the distinction that it could only be used for whatever the sender states -mand that could be coins, currency, or possibly name of a particular country even. it sounds like it could be a boring gift, just plain old money.... but to me, I think it would be cool. hope everyone was able to share in the love with their families!
i forgot to mention what else i got besudes my numismatic stuff a cubs Ryan Theriot Jersey Cubs history book AND THE BEST OF ALL!!!......... a brand new 24 inch i mac!!
I didn't get any coins, but I did get: A Bounty Hunter Pioneer 202 Metal Detector A Nice HoneyWell Safe, with carpeted interior Camera Binoculars so I can get close ups of my coins. REAL close Some plastic folders to hold some of my coins Non-numismatic Pitch Black Electric Guitar with Amp Pink ear phones for my ipod Three Days Grace CD, One-X A few DVD's, along with a big gox of Nerds. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! Phoenix
As far as numismatics, I got six rolls of nickels (two 1950's dates - it was a was). Outside of that, I was given the deed to one square foot of land in Scotland, thereby officially making me a Laird.
