<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mickey in PDX, post: 8234934, member: 74864&quot;]CoinCorgi - thanks for posting! I know you and your brother had a good time chasing those things. Being from Baton Rouge, I saw many of the doubloons that began to float around at the coin club, but didn&#039;t really collect them, trying to raise two young children back then is my excuse I think. Guess I was turned off by the fact they were aluminum. Today, honestly, it doesn&#039;t make any difference and what other metal could have been used as throws anyway. wish I would have kept more of them. Prior to those doubloons, the throws were beads but the doubloons were especially popular, weren&#039;t they! I saw the &quot;H Alvin Sharp&quot; reference in your catalogue and that is a blast from the past. I have some wooden nickels that our BR Coin club were issuing back then. Aren&#039;t you a wooden nickel collector? Someone on CT posted some time back but the email got away from me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
