captainrich Pillar of the Community United States 983 Posts	Posted 12/31/2021 6:39 pm It's been years since I've found anything numismatic at a Thrift Store, but I found something yesterday at a Goodwill Store just south of Pittsburgh. My wife insists she heard me squeal when I saw it on the shelf. It is a new Lighthouse brand display case for slabs, which I bought for $1.99. The Lighthouse website is currently selling this exact item for $36.95 (plus $8.75 shipping). Maybe I did squeal after all.

I told my wife that if I saw slabs inside the case when I opened it, I might've fainted. My 7070 My NGC Registry Sets: https://coins.www.collectors-societ...eopleID=9216 Report this Post to the Staff

captainrich Pillar of the Community United States 983 Posts	Posted 01/03/2022 10:07 pm After trying to figure out which four coins to place in the new display case, I noticed that I had four different autographed American Silver Eagles from the PCGS "American Heroes" series. Suffice it to say, these four individuals were considered American Heroes in 2003-2004: POW Jessica Lynch, astronaut Kathryn D. Sullivan, General Tommy Franks, and cyclist Lance Armstrong.
