What a great day for coins.
June 16, 2009, 12:37:33 AM
What a great day I had today.
Firstly I had a visit at work from Sir Humpybong and his lovely wife.
Barry dropped off about 80 bi-metallic coins for me.
Then when I arrived home I found two boxes of coins waiting
for me on the kitchen table. One was a box of U.S. Cents and Dimes from
Harry (Nuggethill) and the other was a box of Buffalo Nickels, a Hobo Nickel,
an Abe Lincoln token and other U.S. coins, from Templar.

Many thanks to Humpybong, Nuggethill and Templar for a great day. :) :) :)

Templar, I have sent you two e-mails asking for your address, but have not
received any reply. I now have the address off your box. I won't post yours
yet, as I hope to go to a coin shop in the next couple of weeks. I'll see what
else I can find you.

My pleasure, it was great to finally meet you.

Has been 2 weeks and about 4500 Kms travelling to deliver coins to you, just shows how important I think you are, another great mate.

Harry, you wont be able to keep me away, if I ever find my way over there.
I would love to go metal detecting with you. Sounds like fun.
I have found a few Lincolns, that I needed, in that lot you sent me, thanks mate.
Also, I will be upgrading many of my Roosevelts.
