Poll Question
This poll is closed.

Well, I'm almost there, with 984 posts at this time. Like other members, I thought I'd do something to celebrate reaching my thousandth post. I've listed ten coins from my collection here, and one of them is one of my first two silver coin acquisitions ever. If you like, you can take a shot at guessing which. I have said this before, so you can probably do a little digging. I will post the answer in my 1000th post in a couple of days. Other than that, I will stay fairly silent here.

I'll guess the 1884-O Morgan dollar. (Coin #8) Feels like the start of many collections because of its grand size.

I will guess coin 3: 240 AD Gordian III Denarius.

I have selected that coin for no reason at all.

I thought the 1920 Dime, surely the most common to get in change ^^ but I was choosing between the Morgan too - the sort of thing a grandpa might give his grandson.

Anyway look forwards to you joining the 1000+ gang ^^ hilarity normally ensues with tattoo's and celebratory drinks all around.
