I'm going to be sending out the 1854 Type 1 $1 Gold that I got to PCGS tomorrow. I filled the form out, and now all I have to do is take some photos of the coin for my "records".
I also got 3 over-sized chocolate coins (2001-S Lincoln Memorial Cent, 1969 Kennedy Half, and a 1986 1 ounce St. Gaudens Gold Eagle. Pics of everything I got to follow in a little while. :thumb:
This was a Xmas gift from my uncle 4 years ago. Its what got me started and the only graded peice i have.
I got a pretty good start to coin collecting for Christmas this year! 2009 Finland "Peace and Security" 20 euro coin 1999-2008 Fifty State US Mint Proof Sets 2007-2010 Presidential Dollar US Mint Proof Sets And 7 bags of assorted Circulated World Coins I also got the 2010 Standard Catalog of World Coins (all 3 volumes) and the 2010 Standard Catalog of World Paper Money (General Issues and Modern Issues)
I had a very Merry Christmas. I got a 2010 proof ASE, an 1830 Large Cent, 4 new casino tokens, a Bicentennial Ike and 15 pounds of searching cents from others. I got myself the 5 pounds of foreign, and I got alot of sorting done. Unfortunately, I fell sick with the flu on the 23rd and haven't felt like messing with them. I am really looking forward to getting well, though.
My brother stopped by the week before Christmas and dropped off these 2 notes for my collection. The 1923 is a Large-Size note, and I collect Small-Size, but I wasn't going to turn it down.......
Thanks for sharing. These gifts will be precious for everyone. I really like these kind of gifts. Personally I like to gift historical gifts.
Well, it technically counts as a gift, but it was from someone who had given me their childhood collection. P.S. I know how old this thread is.
