<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 8637494, member: 92655"]There was a coin show a hundred miles away. That isn’t a big deal… BUT…. They had a 1913 Liberty nickel on display. A coin that held my imagination as a kid as much as moon rockets did….. Me and the boy headed out early, grabbed breakfast and had a fun ride upstate. There were lots of YN activities set up so we spent a lot of time doing that. Then we went to go slobber all over the case that held the 1913 nickel. My boy had won a ten dollar certificate that I helped him spend on a nice Morgan. Next to the Morgan was a cool shipwreck coin. Now I am a dedicated US type coin guy and I been pretty blessed with my type coin collection, but this old shipwreck Real spoke to me so I picked it up….. Time for refreshments so we headed to the snack bar and my credit card was missing… Holy smokes!!! Immediately we run to the truck and fly back to town where we got our breakfast just as they were locking up. Whew! It was an abrupt end to a fun morning. But I did get my once in a lifetime opportunity to see the magical 1913 Liberty nickel and my boy promised me that when he grows up that he will buy it for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1517023[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1517024[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>“The” nickel….</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1517031[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
