Seeing some great looking coins.

That 1955 DDO is a coin I know I wold like to have.

Nice $4 notes Steve, I have been keeping a eye out for
Canadian $4 notes since last year when I saw one, but didn't
know at the time they had very good value .. so I didn't buy it

I know after this thread I will be picking up some coins from other countries ....

The next coin is arguably the best early commemorative design by the US. There are 14 different mint/dates of them alas I only have three but strive to complete the mini series. someone once told me "you can never have enough Oregon trail half dollars", I agree.

1936 s Oregon Trail Commemorative half.

1928 Peace dollar - the better one of two 28's found when you could still get $20 rolls of Silver Dollars @ the bank.

Thanks GR58 ... yah, those Canadian $4 notes are extremely cool => they're very rare and very pretty (nice combination)

I actually have "all four" of the Canadian $4 notes ... the 3 that I've already shown you, plus this one (yes, I realize that I'm not following the rules, but we're coming to the end of this game/display so I am basically throwing-out all the stops!) ... here is the oldest of the four $4 notes:

Muddler ..seeing your Oregon trails ... really make me want to get one for my 7070. There is a coin show in Foley Alabama this weekend .. maybe I can find one .. at a good price.

Stevex - Those four dollar Canadians would be welcome in any collection. Someday I might find one ..

This thread got me so excited over foreign coins, I picked up six half dollar size coins today
