<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RickieB, post: 453372, member: 2486&quot;]Well it is official..I am finished buying my target notes for 2008.</p><p>Having taken inventory of 08 purchases and to say the least I was shocked at the $$$$$$ invested into high grade notes added to the collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>2008 saw the addition of 3 notes from the Tom Flynn Collection, a very rare&nbsp; National Bank Note $1 from NY, several Large size notes in Gem condition that are currently at PCGS awaiting their mylar resting places..LOL</p><p><br /></p><p>The Small size New York collection grew to an incredibile size with all notes except 4 being CHCU or Gem....it is getting more difficult to locate the remaining notes I need so the eyes are watching for sure!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have had the great pleasure of interacting with all of you and seeing your collections grow as well. Some of you I feel like I have known you for&nbsp; quite a while and others I am just getting to know.</p><p>Many of you have a wealth of knowledge, willingness to share that knowledge and a heartfelt passion to do the research to provide such information..kudo&#039;s to you!</p><p><br /></p><p>In the near future I will be away for a few weeks on vacation with my family in the Islands on a 54&#039; liveaboard Catamaran.....oh how sweet that will be again. No internet connection on this one..LOL</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking ahead to 2009, I have my sights on several large size additions that will perhaps surprize me and you! These are special rare notes that will quickly surpass my 2008 purchases..although they are targets, I must moderate and control this appetite for Gem Rare Notes..heck it will eat me&nbsp; alive..LOL</p><p><br /></p><p>So all in all, thank you friends for being who you are and making contributions to what I think is the best fourm on the net...</p><p><br /></p><p>So now for the time being, I will sit back and enjoy the next 45 days or so reflecting on 2008 and the collection goals.</p><p>Best of hunting to you all....and thanks for all you have provided to this fourm.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>RickieB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
