    Todd just imaged a set of my coins and I thought I would share a few of the commemoratives I purchased in the last few months. I always appreciate any comments, positive or negative.

    First, a Norfolk:

    And second, a Cleveland that I purchased from fellow forum member Mark Feld:

    As always, thanks to Todd for the great work.:thumb:

    I can't imagine anyone having something negative to say about that Norfolk. The Norfolk is pretty easy to find in MS68 but an attractive one is not so easy. I have been waiting for the right one for years and none have struck me yet. Then again, I have the vision of the Anaconda Norfolk stuck in my brain. Yours is very attractive and I can only imagine the luster of that coin in hand. Congrats!

    Those coins look like they need a good dip.

    Paul (Lehigh) brings up a good point about Commemoratives -- many are relatively inexpensive, even in high grades. Ever since I started collecting four years ago, I've heard that Commem's are undervalued. Maybe they always will be but I plan to put together a 50 set piece and take my time and not use much of my coin buying budget.
    Thanks for all the nice comments.:smile
