Thank you for the info, and great images! I like your knowledge of these coins, and your links.
Ha, ha, funny! I am not quite sure how to respond to your question beyond that.
Having a lovely with makes life so much more valuable, even when it seems boring, as you say.
They look deliberately abused, but I wonder who did it, and why.
Beautiful coin! I have a nearly identical example in my type set.
I also like this series, but I love the SLQ series a lot more.
I think it is a little of both. They kind of influence each other.
I like the transparent eagle image and that colony coin. However, my coin of choice would be a Massachusetts cent.
I am wondering that, too. They probably suspect the sender could be a counterfeiter, or could learn how to counterfeit coins with that info.
Interesting. I never saw any coin quite like that in all my 28 years of collecting. Ha, ha! I don't know what I would do with it.
I am not sure your addiction is a bad thing because those dimes look great! I say keep buying them.
Good point. Ha, ha! I suppose members of congress can be indifferent to you, me and most others unless we have enough money to bribe them.
I know that, but I insist that congress creates these coin programs without considering how collectors will respond to them.
I meant it is tradition to keep living presidents off coins. However, Calvin Coolidge was alive in 1926 when portraid on the Sesquicentennial half...
Yes, but why use that as an excuse to exclude him from the series? I know there is tradition, but why screw up a set over tradition? Ha, ha!
I guess some people just like looking at their collection in slabs regardless of what the rest of us think. Ha, ha!
That looks like a fun collection! I remember having that set many years ago. I am sorry I did not keep it, along with my other variety sets.
I would like this series if it did not leave out Jimmy Carter regardless of how he governed. After all, what good is a coin collection when it is...
Well, at least it only cost you $16. I wasted far more on junk over the years. Some things we just never learn. Ha, ha!
I wonder if it is valid since there are errors in that message.
