Post what you got for Christmas. It can be from friends, family, or anybody even yourself. Show us what you got.
Coin related, I got nothing from family and friends. Did get the secret santa gift from this site, which was appreciated. However, I did treat myself to a 2006 1/10oz gold coin as well as a Dolly Madison proof commemorative, both at spot prices.
I got the best gift of all. The expressions of joy on 3 kids faces when they opened their gifts. Priceless.
Got this from a co-worker / friend who I recently found out used to collect coins. What makes it special is that its his pocket piece. Sometimes its the little things that means a lot.
Its in great shape for a pocket piece. I was at my grandparents tonight and me and my dad were looking through an old tin, found a 1956 dime 3 wheat pennies and a 1887 Indian Head penny.
Gotta pic o' that Greg? I know, it's elusive and momentary, residing in the memory of the beholder........only quick snatches too fleet for the lens to capture....
I got a lava lamp! Coin related I got six raw MS Morgans and a Leif Ericson MS dollar in the OGP. This was just pre-Christmas, however.
My family broke down this year and opted for a Christmas Eve celebration, so: Gbroke nailed it - my son's joy at opening gifts was the best and I did get a few on "film." Coin related - an awesome challenge coin (I'm a sucker for these), A Guide Book of Peace Dollars, and a lovely four coin set from my wife. Also some jeans, exercise pants, and an stunning Pink Floyd t-shirt. Really though - watching my boy enjoy his gifts is more then I could have hoped for! Merry Christmas everyone! Happy Holidays to all!
a Red Rider BB Gun...Seriously though, I'm sitting at the dining room table at 5:53 AM waiting for my three children to wake up. They said they were getting up st 4:00....Amateurs!
I give a bunch of silver for Xmas, I don't get any but it's still good. I can use some nice sweaters.
I didn't get any coins. I did give my son the 2008 + 2012 uncirculated sets and the glow in the dark coin, but they lost out to a Jake and the Neverland Pirates pirate ship. I got a money counting jar, shaving supplies (Art of Shaving--good stuff), a fire pit, and a record player that will convert my 78s to mp3s.
:smileA new camera should be one or a replacement battery for Pentax I use now. that all for now as we have no got to the gifts yet under our tree. I hope Everyone get what they wished for!!!! :foot-mouth: Unless it was 1 tons of 24k Gold that gift was meant for me:devil:
Nothing coin related. I did get each of my kids a Whitman state quarter map album and a roll of quarters to get them started. They got a lukewarm reception upon opening, but the kids did warm up to them once they started putting the quarters in.
