I received my package today, and I must say WOW! I wasn't expecting what I received! Out of excitement I took everything out of the box without taking a picture, it was all packaged nicely in a red present box with a ribbon on top. Inside were 2 gold bars of Belgian chocolate, and a bunch of gold chocolate coins along with a thoughtful card with a rather happy snowman. Then there was: 1970 proof set 1971 Eisenhower uncirculated silver dollar envelope 1988 silver dollar inside a blue box with certificate of authenticity 1961 PCGS PR67 50 cents from David Lawrence company (never heard of that company) And there were more coins in 2x2s that went into my albums! 1875 Indian head 1873 Indian head 1864 large motto 2 cent 1870 5 cent 1894 5 cent 1897 quarter 1949 D half dollar 1906 half dollar AND 1897 Morgan dollarAND 1904 O Morgan dollarI don't know what to say except for thank you!!!!

Triple wow. The generosity bar has been set.

Remember this is all that is required
From the rules
# 3 You must agree to send a coin or banknote with a minimum purchase value of US 10 dollars ($ 10) to the person you are assigned to. (FAQ: It does not have to be a single coin or banknote - but let's not get silly)

Incredible, your secret Santa sure knows how to make the season bright.
Oh, be sure to enjoy those gold coins ... I've heard you can nibble on those and they taste pretty good! You might want to leave a 'chomp' mark on each.

Received my Secret Santa gift a few days ago and all I can say is wow ... what a nice couple items my Santa brought me this year.
As my Santa's workshop is apparently in Canada, I received a 2023, 1 oz. Elizabeth II, $5 silver maple and a 2018, Bank of Canada, $10 banknote (graded PMG 64).
Both being absolutely tremendous gifts that I'm so appreciative of.
Not being an avid world coin collector, I'm always amazed at how nice the Canadian Mint coins are from a design and quality perspective. Their coins, and bank notes, are stunning and so different than what I'm used to collecting.
Thanks again Santa ... for the two tremendous gifts that will forever occupy a special spot in my collection.

Well, I received my package last night from Santa and let me just say these four coins are right in my wheelhouse and will find a nice place in my collection. I appreciate them very much. Thanks Santa.   The Kennedy half has a clip by the date. The Jefferson nickel has a Misaligned Obverse Die. The Wheat cent has a lamination across the upper Reverse The Indian cent has a slight clip about 1 o'clock Obverse.
