2021 Holiday Exchange -Secret Santa -Enter By 27 Nov

Here's a shot of what Santa brought this year, and a close up of the 54-s RPM, a very cool, extreme RPM.

A big thank you to Santa for the generous gift! The Barber will fill the spot in my album, along with the lg. cent (both albums I've been neglecting and has inspired me to dig back into them).

The 1960 DDR and 59-D DDO are both better examples than the existing ones I have, and the 54-S RPM-003 is one I do not have! And can't go wrong with a Shield nickel and a great looking Merc!

Icing on the cake was a thoughtful card as well.

So another big thank you, and Merry Christmas to whomever my Santa was!

gift arrived from over the pond,

very nice assortment, and very thoughtful

You can take me off, my post is on Page 17.

Thanks

I received my secret santa package in the mail yesterday. I say it's an ideal gift for a nickelsearcher, three MS nickels. Many thanks to my secret santa for a thoughtful gift.

@mcshilling, you refered to your secrete santa as he, you may have genders wrong there :p an amazing gift either way!

It's awesome seeing the gifts arriving, everyone is so generous here. I was never much of a festive person but with my son around now I have been alot more in the holiday spirit this year

@88isgreat,they are large cents and seem to be in good shape from what I can see from your photos. The newfoundland 5¢ is a nice little silver piece,the newfoundland silver coins from that time frame are under looked at the moment considering mintages and I recently have gotten a bit more into then I still don't have a blank planchette I still don't have one but plan to purchase one in the future. A very nice gift:)

Thanks @wrekkdd and @jeffbuckes. Always interesting to learn about coins that are not part of your primary collecting area. Usually end up learning some history at the same time.

I wholeheartedly agree with this and the sentiments.
I think Secret Santa is a wonderful idea for us to get together and doing something festive to enjoy the holiday!

All of us try our best to find right gifts for our members, some are known to us and others not, that does not stop us from trying to gift the member.

Please go forward and enjoy the fun of giving! It does not have to be expensive or correct, just share what you think other person might like or learn something out of it.

I do hope all of us remember our Christmas memories of presents, that did make you happy or disappointed. Preferably on happy side!

I am sure some of us got an ugly jumper or sweater as a gift. Does that mean a person is bad at giving? Naw. It just means he or she probably thought it was a perfect gift, theme or not.

So, please have fun and be festive!! Or should I say merry?

That reminds me to get another wee packet out to a kind soul! Let's have a great holiday together!

On separate note, I am pleased to hear that our Secret Santa's wife is doing well and is recovering from her surgery. Happy that things are turning out well!
