Message:: [QUOTE="kountryken, post: 26533656, member: 89798"]Well, my wife and I took a trip to Cabo, Mexico last week. We flew out of DFW, so, since my ex- wife lives in that area, we spent the night before and 2 nights after the trip at her house. She dropped us off, and picked us up from the airport, which was very helpful and appreciated. When we got back, I picked the lock on a fire resistant box she had that she had lost the key to. We were looking at some things left to her from her Dad, which included several coins. He wasn't really a "collector", but had accumulated some through the years. One is the one below, an 1869 Three Cent Piece. She had never seen one. I told her that I had an 1865, 1866, 1867, 1868 and 1870, but was missing the 1869. So, she gave it to me. She knows that I will be leaving it to our Grandson, so it's not leaving the family. Anyway, it's not the greatest, but it's very much appreciated and valued to me! As you can see, when he bought it, it was $2.50, lol.[ATTACH=full]1691157[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1691158[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1691159[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
