@rggoodie: I think you need to put me back up on your list as not receiving yet. I did not get the gift from my secret Santa yet, still waiting on that. The gift I got from Colhand1 was an impromptu gift.

Have a nice trip NumisRob, sounds like fun. I love trains!
After coins they are my happy spot.
Some nice gifts coming in people, silver dollars, 25c notes, old pennies - wow! Oh well my Numista gifts may bring a nice surprise.

I must say that I am also leaving town on December 26 and may not have time to receive my gift from Santa. I can't say exactly when I will return to the city, but I think it will be January 10th.

Quote: We weren't matched by Santa, Colhand1 did this on his own. (My return address was on the package I sent to him). @Dearborn, thank you for this clarification. I am just happy Colhand1 and you are able to demonstrate Christmas spirit. I think Colhand1 certainly outdone himself as a Santa and bringing the festive spirit back to this Secret Santa 2021. That matters more, I believe. The gifts are awesome! All different goodies particularly silver coins. PLUS you got an excellent news on your Morgan dollars which I like!! Happy tidings! Right? I was surprised that people did not use Morgan dollars that much back in the day as they were too big and heavy to carry around. They did see circulation mostly in the West. Hope you would enjoy your Secret Santa present whenever it arrives.

OK! The gift from my secret Santa came in today. Complete with a Christmas card  I'll get pictures up after I have my dinner. (My dinner table doubles as my photo lab  ) The card contained a very nice personal note, Thanks Leslie. As you have probably noticed - all is good!  I think I may be sent on a new path for collecting pennies. (Canadian Pennies) I got 6 dated from 1963 to 1967 I wonder if Dansco makes a Canadian album  Photos to follow in a bit. HEY SANTA!! you can remove my name now, thanks!

@Dearborn, I think the Canadian Pennies you got are beauties.
I must admit you have a great photography skill! I couldn't take a close-up image like that. Quite impressed with your talent!
I will try my best when it is my turn here. :)

Thanks Carrigna, it took a lot of practice and different setups to get it this far.
(I'm still trying to get all the images the same size now.)

Some nice looking 1 cent coins. It's sad they are all just being destroyed. But I guess good for collectors.

Dearborn, I am glad you received my gift and that you like it, BUT I am not your CCF Secret Santa! That was just a wee gift from me to you.
