Want To Fix A Childhood Mistake, Please Don't Cringe.

I am near Pensacola.

I would have to check ..
Seems like you can buy or trade at 50 post ... if you try you can get that
many in a couple days .....

One of your comments above leads me to think he probably said, "It's not like I had a 1914-D." Not trying to be a detective, but that leads me to think either the collection did not include Lincoln Volume 1, or that if it did, it may have had a fair number of gaps. Either way, I think it means you can do something meaningful without taking on getting a complete Lincoln set, which as has been noted, is very expensive. The nickles and dimes, as also noted, are much easier.

Here's a question for a moderator or older member (I read the rules and FAQ's and wasn't quite sure how to interpret): Since CoinMom4 clearly did not ask for anything, would it be OK if some members wanted to pass on some orphan coins for this project? It's a frequent topic around here to ask what to do with extra coins that are not needed, but we don't want to throw them away. We could post a note here to avoid duplicates. A variation could be that if CM4 starts hunting in bags, some good Samaritans might help with the holes that don't get filled. I always found it an interesting variation on the laws of probability that even some very high mintage coins hid themselves from me for a long time.

Let me emphasize that I'm very much open to being told this is not OK.

Yes, unsolicited giveaways are allowed. There are more than a few here who have benefited from such kindness. As long as the recipient accepts the offer, of course.

I would be willing to send some coins to you pro bono, but I would understand if you want to remain anonymous. Not sure how to get coins from Oklahoma to Florida without an address.

I love this story and want to see it fulfilled to the fullest.

PS, I'm sure you wouldn't, but don't post your address on this forum. Only by PM.

WOW you guys have made me cry !! That's is so sweet and thoughtful and amazing. I have no idea how to do a PM but am more than happy so send my address for those who want it.
Right now I think I'm just going to focus on book Whitman #2 and #3 (1941-74 and 75 to current) I know I'm going g to miss some key dates. But that'll be ok. I'll get the extra books tonight so that I can start filling.
