<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Eidolon, post: 4642400, member: 102103&quot;]Day 120:&nbsp; Well, 120 days is a triple quarantine, which is rather a long time.&nbsp; When I started this diary, the initial shutdowns were described as likely to last a few weeks,</p><p>to slow down the rate of infection growth and give hospitals a chance to stock up on </p><p>things like masks, gloves and ventilators so as not to be overwhelmed.&nbsp; A good </p><p>thing--I&#039;m not complaining!&nbsp; But it looks like quarantine is not going to end in a </p><p>definite way, but to slowly phase out, varying by region.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coin stores were closed, along with most other retail businesses.&nbsp; As a hopeless coin</p><p>addict, I hoped to provide some entertainment to those missing coins by posting </p><p>some of my old, previously unsorted coins and researching a bit about them.&nbsp; I&#039;ve </p><p>certainly learned quite a few things I hadn&#039;t known along the way.&nbsp; Thanks to all for</p><p>reading, and for the thoughtful comments along the way.&nbsp; I&#039;ll continue to post coins</p><p>in other threads as appropriate, such as the Newest Acquisitions thread.&nbsp; But for the</p><p>diary portion, at least, I&#039;m wrapping it up as of today.&nbsp; It&#039;s been fun!</p><p><br /></p><p>France, 25 Centimes, 1903</p><p><br /></p><p>Not an especially rare type, but only made for 2 years from 1903-4.&nbsp; I thought this</p><p>one was in attractive condition and very modestly priced, and I didn&#039;t have an </p><p>example of this type previously.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1147146[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
