We can wait! How long will it take?

 

I have to get back to work first. Medical problems have me out since a week before thanksgiving. It's been a hard couple months for me. And now I have giant hospital bills coming at me like a punch in the face. It'll be a while.

Anywhoo... back on track with the game.
A peculiar looking dark half dime. In hand it's black and then in the light it's blue. I like it.

 

Hope you have a speedy recovery and you're feeling better.

 

Next up could be an IHC or anything dated 1901 or any token or medal.

 

Thanks for explaining that rule. I didn't quite know how exonumia worked in the game.

Back in 2011 or 2012, my uncle came while I was at my grandma's house shooting some coins. I had just started collecting coins, so I didn't know about any exonumia save for Chuck-E-Cheese's game tokens. He pulled out his wallet and asked me "Do you know what a Challenge Coin is? Me, new, said no. He explained the rules and a bit of history behind challenge coins.

He then produced his to show me.
I was 16 at the time. I was in high school at the time and participated in the JROTC program. When we were issued our uniforms, our MSgt gave us challenge coins and a tidbit of history. Until my uncle produced his, I only thought it was a military thing. Didn't know other civil service jobs had their own participated in challenging.

Game. Set. Match.

I pulled out my wallet and produced my own. All he said after that was "You sly dog! Do you want a glass of milk or a juice box??"

I snagged his to take a picture, as I thought the design was quite beautiful.

A year later, he gave me a couple he had duplicates of. Now I have to dig them out and photograph them.

 

Pretty cool. Next up would be any token or medal or anything dated 1918 or 1981
