Title: Todays Purchases
Post by: NoHope587 on November 02, 2008, 01:40:45 PM

Went to a coin show today and as usual pickings for my favorite coin were slim.
Came away with three additions to the herd.

I love the striping on that first coin.  Nice choices!

Do you have plans to hit the Money Show of the Southwest at the beginning of December?

Yes, the "wood grain" of the 1864 is very nice!

I only own one, but they are very interesting.

My wife and I bought an 1867 as a gift for our oldest son.  He was born 100 years later, in 1967!!
