It's weird, the first 6 coins were normal 1oz coins and the next 6 coins were all over sized coins about 2oz.
I got a bit of a shock when the first of the oversized coins hit my desk.

I sure hope its there before Christmas. If Santa brings it, that would mean about 3 months of shipping by way of the north pole.

I am certain that that won't be the case.
Pick your favorite design of the coins posted and I will make certain that Santa puts one in your Christmas stocking is what I meant
Your unselfish generosity deserves a reward and it will please me no end to get what you choose and send it to you

Wait a minute
This is your payback for the 1968 Australian set you sent me.

A little tease: I won't give all my secrets away, but I did include a special US coin that cost me 1 cent.
(each day, a certain website runs a 1 cent sale on coins or supplies)
