A friend unexpectedly sent these notes to me. A very nice Christmas present . The Obsoltete Bank of America note is an 1860 and is an unissued gem and the $20 is a 1929 that has seen alot of circulation but I love those Federal Reserve Bank Notes no matter what shape their in.............................

In the bottom of my stocking (thank you Mrs. Claus)... look out coin sellers, I've got the "big" bucks and I'm ready to spend!
I pleaded with my wife to give me something numismatic this year instead of sweaters, socks or ties. I still got the sweater and the ties, but i also got a "voucher" for a (moderately priced) coin of my choice! what a wife! Before she surprised me that gift, i had "taken the precaution" to buy myself this: Not a perfect example- the obverse has some spot of red corrosion, and the reverse is moderately pitted, but still a nice, pleasing example.
This was the present I bought myself on Teletrades December 24th auction. Yep, I got another no stars dime. Very best regards, collect89
Among other things I got a Whitman Classic album for Barber Halves and an XF 1888 Liberty "V" Nickel from my parents. My wife didnt get me anything numismatic.
