Well my wife was nice enough to allow me to have a nice $500 budget for coin. I ended up getting a 1971 and 1972 Brown box Proof Ikes which complete my Ike collection in proofs. I picked up 9 AU Morgans all in the 1880-1893 range plus one that I have wanted for a long time a 2001 Buffalo Silver Proof Commemorative and some large size notes as well. Also 3 Large cents 1847 1848 1851 I'll post some picts when I have a chance to take some, maybe tonight.

I still haven't finished sorting and putting my new coins up but I promise to have some picts tonight or tomorrow. And my wife is getting treated VERY well :-) She just bought a new living room set! But I do have a great wife. I can't wait to see the Proof Buffalo. It was that or the 1936 Columbia Commemorative. I think I made a good choice.

Some of the guys on this site sound more envious about your kindly wife than about the coins! Do exercise caution lest they ask for pics of her, too! She sounds like a keeper ...  My wife attends coin shows with me ... eat yer hearts out fellas!
