Oh Wow...A big Thank You to my Secret Santa !! I can only surmise that Santa enjoyed my contribution to this CCF forum over the past year(s) and put me on his nice list... Also got to say........Santa must have a great memory because I can recall commenting on a post quite some time back that dimes were the only denomination I don't collect.....  Well guess what ? Now I do..  ..........My gift was 3 Whitman folders (1946 thru present day) and 4 coin tubes filled with most ( if not all I believe ) of the coins needed to fill up those albums. It'll take me a weekend "of work" to fill the albums after the acetone baths and gloving up (most reeds look like Uncs ) Thinking back I was the first to receive a gift this year and then held out until Christmas Day to open....well worth the wait. Again a big heartfelt Thank You......Santa.....for such a wonderful gift....

Roger that Santa. Thanks for the heads up. Special thank you to my SS for the double handling effort. Been there as well, and have lots of patience. This is another fine year for gifts. Never fails though. Tip of the hat to you all.  Pics when it arrives.....

Hi all!
I will reply in more details tonight as I just arrived at my parents' home after my several bouts of illnesses.
Meanwhile, I hope everyone here had a wonderful and blessed Christmas with their loved ones and friends! I will wish you at appropriate time as your Christmas is in the New Year for one of our members here, Slerk.
I got a word from an elf that my package arrived at its destination somewhere in the West Coast yesterday! I hope this person would like what Santa Claus sent him. I am waiting on the elf to update me soon. :)
Cheers!

Hi!!!
Wow! It looks like Santa Claus was really good to many of us this year!
I love the coin calendar!
Some of you got amazing silver dollars: Morgan and Peace! I am envious.cos of rocketing silver prices now. No, not that I want to make a profit but to appreciate the generosity of our gifters! They certainly put a lot of heart and thoughts into these gifts!
I am so glad all of us are cheering them on. That is what Christmas spirit is all about!
Slerk, thank you so much for your kind offer. You can PM me for further details.
To my Santa Claus, I reread your letter. I do apologize that you were having difficulties to find something nice for me on CCF. I did post my interests but they were taken down. But you can find some information from my trade wants.
I also research on a challenge coin. I am touched you would bless me with the coin. My grandfather served in the Pacific Theatre during the Second World War. He survived and came home with hearing loss.
Greasy Fingers, you got wonderful presents! Folders fill in along with reds!
Just curious as to why you need to put them in acetone bath when they are UNC?
Will reply more tomorrow.
Stay well and be safe, all of you, please!
Kind regards!

oih82w8, your gift is beautiful coin set!
Are the empty holes intentional or the coins fell out? I think Santa Claus did his job wonderfully!
My elf is quite anxious regarding my present I passed onto him. Hope the giftee is well and safe?
I am having a quiet day with my parents celebrating my special day today. :)
Will follow up more tomorrow!
Cheers!
