    This one was "mine" for 24 hours recently, on a swap deal that ended up being reversed.

    Thanks for noticing. We Creatures of the Night should stick together! :blackalien::vamp:

    Actually, I'm off work tonight, but one physical quirk of being a graveyard shift worker is that I usually wake up around 3-4 AM on my off-nights.

    Yea I keep the same schedule when I am off, which means going to bed no earlier than 7am

    Alright, have just a couple more US coins to play. This one was probably my first "better" US coin purchase ever. Looks like it may have had a dip, but it's a sentimental piece :)

    US or 1932

    Key dates are always nice to have. Especially in higher grade like that.

    Lovely piece. Something about these diminutive pieces that I appreciate :)

    Here is my humble "threepence" :hilarious:

    We can make this next a wild card:1851 or USA or any love token/engraved piece (as long as it has a date).

    Intaglio seal matrix carved on 1838 USA Coronet large cent.

    Seal of the "Philodemic Society", an academic institution which apparently still exists today.

    Very cool, as was @daveydempsey's "whopper copper" with the nice contrasting toning.

    I played my holey 1842 Russian rouble and don't think I have any 1931 coins imaged offhand, but since you granted an "error" wildcard...

    Let's go Germany or 1924 or error coin, next.
