This brief message emphasizes that. Some of you may recall that recently I donated some of my collection to a very worthy cause - the good that came from that simple act is: My cousin came over from Indiana this past week to visit, and, brought 3 coins that he has had for a long time - he's not a collector - just had the coins put away in a drawer ('cause he thought they were cool), knew that I collect coins, and decided to give them to me the next time he came for a visit. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised when I got them. I've included scans of the coins. I think it's pretty cool the way it happened, and wanted to share the story and scans of the coins with y'all.

Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 11/03/2007 9:41 pm No - I had no idea what coins he intended to give me - just said he had some old coins I might be interested in. I was, mnost definitely interested in the ones he gave me. Like I said =- good breeds good. Yes, the 1839 capped bust half dollar was a total surprise, and I'm still reeling from that one.
