is out of the country and will not be able to check his mail until February.
For that reason I have taken his name off the list of those waiting to receive.

I realized I didn't post pics of my Secret Santa gifts. Thanks to my 2018 Santa as items received were a great variety of numismatics. Not sure how he knew I collected British as well as US. Thanks!

Same here. They also make chocolate "notes" with absurd denominations.

Thanks for the clarification on the 1797 penny, @OttawaVoyageur.

Your 2nd coin is not a cartwheel. It is a 1806 or 07 penny.
