A great night for this penny collector!

I was over my brother-in-laws this afternoon and mentioned I was collecting pennies. He disappears down to the basement and comes back up with his dad’s old coin album. ...and just gives it to me.

Judging by how often I find wheat cents while CRH, he saved me a couple years of searching. I’m happy as a clam, currently moving them from the folder to my album.

Very cool You owe him a beer

 

And pretzels.......

 

Preferably soft. I currently have beer...but only have a few hard pretzels. Not cutting the mustard.

 

Gotta be Guldens...........

 

I have it on good account that those two would only request 'Frenches'.......Bloody 'yellow', uninspired mustard.......

 

They are not worthy.........

 

Being gifted something a fellows fathers incomplete coin album is quite special and says something about your character as well. Congratulations.

 

Wow, that is a really old album. Very cool!

 

I like how all the dates after 1953 are written in by hand. All those coins should have been saved as new straight from circulation.

 

Blood is thicker then water. Your lucky to have such a great sibling

 

That is pretty strong evidence that this folder dates from 1952 or 1953. That is one of the reasons it is so cool, in my opinion.

 

Hey, I found Marky Mark.........I'll post him later.

 

Very cool!
