Our club had our second coin show. Good turn out overall but fewer dealers this year. Here are my take aways, with the 40 S Walker completing my...
Great addition to your set! I really enjoy the CA commems with the bears. I particularly love this bear and the lines of the ocean are amazing. I...
I added this 1943 S to my set today. All I need for the set is a 40 S. I feel the San Fran strikes in the late 30's and 40's were weak compared to...
Whoa! The dime? Let's not be brash, now! lol
This past Monday I attended the local coin club. We always have an auction, and honestly, money was burning a hole in my pocket. I haven't...

Close, MS 64. I did Barbers, Mercs, and Roosevelts. I am just expanding my numismatic horizons.
That is right, folks! Just 2 left for the set. Here is the new addition to my Walker hoard. Thanks for looking! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Wife is at work and I am bored, so I'll play along. Why not, right? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
