I got a 2014 United States Mint proof set and a 2004 Austrian Wiener Philharmoniker 100 euro gold coin. I got Big Daddy 5 oz piece of silver with skulls on it. He's a skull collector. Excellent Christmas!

I got 1 ASE and finally got my ASE Dansco. A couple more holes to fill and I'll be current. I also got penny rolls. Apparently my wife has been looking through all of her pocket change and separating them out for me. 6 rolls of au/ms 83-current coins, 3 rolls of copper, and two coins short of a full roll of wheats.

10 merc, 7 War Nickels, 8 silver Rosie's, and four transit tokens for my albums that I needed from my boyfriend. 2010 and 2009 proof sets from my parents and a lot of foriegn coin in my stocking. There was like 80 that they got in a box from a flea market. Cool coins but no precious metals mostly from the 1940's to 1970's. It also had a mason counter stamp penny and a weird cancer adult token that was highly inappropriate and looks like something Austin powers would carry. That one surprised us all parents didn't go through the box first

If it were not for CCF, I would not have gotten any Christmas coins. The wife and kids said I am hard to buy for, and when they ask me what I want, all I say is coins! Plus last year they went to a coin shop, handed the guy a list I gave them, and unfortunately the shop had none of the many things on my list (and they were inexpensive proof Ikes and JFK halves). So it discouraged them from trying to get me coins.

But I think I might be able to convince them to try again next year.

BTW - here is the pic also posted in the secret Santa exchange thread. Smokeriderdon was my secret Santa this year:
1926 & 1930-S SLQ, and 1974-S & 1976-S 40% Ikes. A great part of Christmas for me!

Nice photo, Earle.

Other than the 2014 FDR C&C set I ordered for myself (not here yet), I got a box of change from the wife's aunt to look through. I will let you know what I find.

Only a bag of chocolate coins for me, but they seem to have disappeared already.

No coins but I did get the 2015 Coins of England book published by Spink. It's the 50th edition so I was expecting something special but alas it's exactly the same as the 49th edition.

I will probably buy a new sovereign in the next couple of weeks.

I went back East to visit my Mother and found an incomplete boxed display of American State Quarters that belonged to my Dad before he died. This set is priceless to me because the coins already placed were put there by my Dad. My Mother let me take it home and I completed the set. Truly my best gift.

My fiancée bought me silver! Of course, I bought her gold a couple months ago, so maybe she was just trying to return the favor.

I bought it with Christmas money.

I hope to add a shield back Sovereign to my collection in the next couple of weeks.

Little late but...no coins this year. Just a type set book and an Intercept type set album.
