An impressive accomplishment that certainly isn't finished overnight. Well done!

Congratulations!
It's probably a comforting feeling drifting off to sleep at night, knowing how jealous T-BOP is of your set!

I'm only jealous because I don't have the coin budget that Carl evidently has .  |

Liberty seated?  I can remember Mercury dimes, and even found a worn 1921 in circulation. |

Back when I was a kid my Dad gave me an allowance in Silver Dollars. I spent them all as if they were just money and back then that is all they were. So many of my Mercury dimes with FSB were actually from change. I still remember how mad people were when Mercury dimes were replaced with Roosevelt dimes. |

Oh yeah? Well when I was a kid growing up, I had to walk three miles to school everyday in three feet of snow, up hill, BOTH WAYS! All joking aside, I do remember as a kid getting a beautiful Mercury dime each week as an allowance... what did I do with those them? Save them? I wish I did. Instead, I would run to the drug store to buy candy (candy bars were a nickel apiece). Congrats just carl! I'm extremely jealous! |
