I appreciate the vigilance, but you didn’t have to white out my real-life name on the pix of the coin holders. It’s no secret. ;) Thanks for...
Looks like 26 cents worth of stamps disappeared. Must’ve happened after the postmark. Glad it made it there! :nailbiting: You still got the...
I had a Darth Vader “JOIN THE DARK SIDE” animated GIF to post, but my stupid iPhone doesn’t work with those, for some reason. Rusty staples......
Wow, that’s a nice lot! Good on you, @Mark Metzger! Some of those old 2x2s look like the 1970s-vintage holders that were in that lot you got...

Not quite, but almost, probably.
I don't think it makes F12. You've got no separation of the strands in the wheat ears that I can see. More like G4 to G6 ... details....
