My gift arrived last week but I was traveling and just got to the mailbox this morning.

It will sit happily under my tree until Christmas.

Thank you Santa!

I'm working on my giftee's today and it will go out Monday or Tuesday, hopefully that will be enough time for the elves to deliver before Christmas!

Giving my gift to Santa (USPS) Monday to get it to the recipient.

USPS told me to expect a package this Tuesday, so I'm guessing that's from Secret Santa for me.

Where are all the photos? 9 members have received gifts but only 3 have posted pictures. The best part of the holiday exchange is seeing everyone's presents!

However, I understand if members want to wait till Christmas to open them. That's what I would do.

OK Finally freed up time for a few images from S-Santa:
I got a very nice 1992 (125th anniversary of Confederation) I hat 12 quarters and 1 Dollar coin, 1 quarter from each Canadian Province set in a cardboard Royal Canadian Mint holder.

Also got 5 International Notes:
1991 Republic of Hrvatska (Croatia) - 1 Dinar
ND (1991-1992) Nicaragua - 5 Centavos
ND (1991) Nicaragua - 25 Centavos
1963 Brazil - 100 Cruzeiros (Valor Legal Variety)

Thanks!
I agree Jon - that Brazilian note is the king of these 4, but all of them are in great uncirculated condition (well except for one, which looks like somebody pined it up on a cork board.)

The temptation was more than I could bear, I broke down and opened my gift from Santa.
WOW really cool $10 Canadian Commemorative note from 2017 along with a fact sheet explaining all the features like color shifting and a transparent window through the note. Graded 65 Gem with the notation "Exceptional Paper Quality". It is like a piece of artwork and I love it. Thank you CCF Santa, great gift!
