Two more arrivals today from Dustin6 and JCStevens. Dustin6 1993 US Nickel Clipped Planchet I really like this error coin Dustin, and the autographed copy of Coin News wherein you are acknowledged for the discovery of a DDO on a 2011 Lincoln Shield cent is a great personal feat. Quite astute for a young numismatist. Thanks very kindly Dustin6, a worthy pool opponent.    JCStevens 2016 Daniel Carr Copper Satin Finish Medal commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Colorado Springs Numismatic Society The medals were designed by Daniel Carr and I believe signed by Carr on the Certificate. Awesome. It has a 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter on the Reverse. Many noteworthy numismatists came out of this club. This is one of 82 medals minted. Thanks so much JCStevens, a fantastic gift.     Links to the medal and the striking. http://csns.anaclubs.org/csns_medal.htmhttp://csns.anaclubs.org/images/201...ng_event.htmCheck out the photos, the medal above was struck at this event. 50th Anniversary Medal Striking Event Photos Edited by SilverDon

I figured being in Canada it'd be neat to give you a variety of the U.S. coins of a classic bicentennial year. I LOVE the bicentennial quarter... man that thing pops.

Congratulations on your win and also your team having a better than one in four chances to win the Super bowl. That first picture was excellent almost had me fooled. Now that you have all these wonderful American coins let me know if you need any books.

Pats looked a bit tired in beating the Texans, Pittsburgh didn`t score a touchdown, could be a strange AFC Final, I was also surprised by the Packers, but I had picked Atlanta. I see NE vs Atlanta in the Superbowl, home teams prevail in Divisional Finals. I looked up the 1818 Capped Bust Half - it is an 1818 50C
O-108, as noted it has the breaks in the tops of the 8`s in the date and die trails on the stars on the obverse and legend die trails on the reverse. From this site; https://www.NGCcoin.com/coin-variet...-o-108-2619/ It is neat how the die pairings have been studied on these varieties. The die cracks on the Morgan dollar are spectacular John. It is a neat dollar to look at under the loupe. The trophy sits proudly on the mantle still. Thanks John, I can`t say it enough. Edited by SilverDon

Spence sent me a package that I was happy to receive. Great 1 ounce American Silver Eagle Dollar from 1999 (loving the bullion) in really nice Littleton Coin Co. Packaging. A Lincoln/Kennedy Penny, excellent indeed, a keepsake for sure, and a 1961 Uncirculated Canadian cent, with red luster. Loving the 1961 rotator date. Thanks very kindly spence, this prize was a real treat. You have all been so kind. Thanks ever so much.
