That's a tough one, Sal. I'm sort of in the same boat but I do have a daughter who shows some interest in my collection. I don't worry about her...
Your proof Indian is beautiful. Bruce
I was always curious as to what a blacksmith token was, so now I know. I thank you for the explanation. BTW, are there any books devoted to this...
The Civil War tokens are about historic as it gets. I also have a thing for them but I never had a Monitor. Bruce
I love those old coppers and the Strawberry Leaf is a very special one. Bruce
Not really but that's not what I'm in it for anyway. I just love the history of the coins and the joy of collecting. Bruce
Wow, that's a great looking building. Very appropriate to it's purpose. I never saw a picture of it before. Bruce
You're in it aren't you, Sal? Bruce
Wonder how many levels of Closely Circulated there are. Something like CC-1 thru CC-10 maybe.:eek: Bruce
These little 3-cent pieces are underappreciated by collectors. It's a pretty coin and unusual for it's size. The devices are simple and clean. You...
The second picture is best in my opinion. It's a more natural view of your coin. Bruce
Happy to see them all. I very much enjoy reading the details and seeing the images of your collections. Bruce
Outstanding! Bruce
A beautiful example that's as good as it gets in my opinion. One of my favorite tokens in any series, especially the HTTs. I had one years ago but...
Yes, it's been cleaned but probably not whizzed. Bruce
I can't see anything obvious on your coin. It's a beautiful example nevertheless. Bruce
I haven't bought anything from the mint in years for many reasons. The prices are part of it. Bruce
That's why I never started collecting them. I get hooked on different issues and can't let go...until I run out of money.:D Bruce
Conders are an interesting area of collecting much like HTTs. I like your token...very nice. Bruce
A great coin with some nice toning at 5 O'clock. Free even makes it better. Bruce
