Mailman brought me 2 of these...

One for Patrick and one for a friend.

Also a very UGLY 73-S Silver Proof Ike. Ugly because it's covered in nasty fog. However, that ugly fog by the end of the year will turn into some nice toning in the album.

That means....

THE IKE SET IS COMPLETE!!!

Got a Dutch 50 gulden coin from 1990 yesterday. It commemorates 100 years "Vorstinnenregering", ie. women as heads of state. The coin shows the queens Emma, Wilhelmina, Juliana, and Beatrix.

Right, except that "vorstinnen" is plural. So in German you would say something like "Fürstinnen-Regierung".

Sometimes they come through the first time and I think miss one and come back and throw it on the table in the porch, that's where they usually are.
