Hi,
I'm back. Things are getting much easier. As some of you may have read in a previous post my sister-in-law passed away and had an enormous coin collection. Unfortunately the "other brother" saw the opportunity to remove the entire collection from her home before my hubby could have the collection validated, but somehow missed this album.
I was unable to post images of them before so here they are in my CCF gallery HERE


NOTE: They are more valuable to us sentimentally. They are NOT for sale.
I tried to get the best image, still trying to perfect my picture taking skills.
If you need a closer image of a specific coin post here your request and I'll try to do my best and post it in the 'grading' section.

If these were to go up for sale, (sometime in the far away future) what would they go for?
As a complete album or single? removed from the card?

Thanks

back!

That is an interesting album. Judging by the postmarks, it looks like this was assembled somewhat recently. Definitely high sentimental value; worth more than the other brother could ever know.

Not to be too crass, but maybe you should consult a lawyer concerning the "appropriation" of the other coin albums.

Was there a will? Was your brother/brother-in-law present or knowledgeable of the other party's actions? Any written or verbal agreements? Is there documentation of the other albums? i.e., insurance photos, etc.?

Welcome back!! And I'm sorry for your loss.

Welcome back Mila!!

Sorry to hear what you & the hubby have gone through lately and are now going through. It is good to hear from you and to see the coin passion is still there. Maybe you could lend your hubby your "Angel in Pocket" token to bring him a little luck

You must be confusing me with another member. I don't believe I ever had a 'kitty' avatar.

A far as hubby and I are concerned, the collection is now cursed and tainted and we want no part of them. If there were any written documentation the brother took them.

As for his brother, he will forever have no Good Luck and everything he tries to do to better his life will fall through because of his actions and greed.

My husband feels as I do, that this happened for a reason we don't see or understand as of yet, but will be realized in the future. So no.. we are not going to pursue this issue. All is in the hands of God.

Thank You for your concern.
God Bless,

Sadly, the first day I put the "Angel" in my pocket, it was lost. I might have used it to 'pay' for a purchase or dropped.
When I realized what happened upon returning home, I cried 'like a baby'. Maybe it was meant for me to 'give away'.

The 'Angel token' hubby found still lies in his pocket.
I wasn't so lucky.

Mila, glad to hear about the 1890cc. As far as the avatar, maybe I'm misremembering, but I thought that you replaced your golden hound with a Hello Kitty coin for a while.
