[QUOTE="Obone, post: 5426810, member: 79892"]2020 has been an extremely interesting year for me. As a senior in high school, not being able to see all my friends and have the normal high school experience was really a let down, but this extra time allowed me more time to focus on my numismatic business. Towards the end of the year, I got into college as well, and a large part of my application focused on numismatics. To celebrate, I think this is a fitting first purchase for 2021, from the Stackbowers sale. This particular coin holds significance to me, as it was a similar Cromwell coin that I found in a junkbox during my time working as the numismatic expert in a small pawn shop. Despite it being a fake, I remember how excited I was with such a rare coin, and now I'm glad to be able to acquire the real deal!
