No, I have looked now and then but I'm not planning on selling my three, so I haven't paid close attention. Everyone says they will drop after this wave - I'm sure they will dip some, but I'm not so sconvinced that they'll go to the cellar as some insist.

Update: checked again and my gold order 42927xxx, which hit my credit card on the 28th, was shipped today, June 3rd.

My order has been sitting at 6/30 for weeks but today they hit my credit card for the gold BHOF's and the status has suddenly changed to "In stock and reserved" - I hope that means they are shipping soon!

Ayup. And "coins" with thermometers, or shaped like maps or that fold up into boxes..

They are numismatic items because wealthy and powerful people bought and sold them as such, sealing their pedigree forever. This is political reality.

Too much trouble, sorry. Oh, well.

I was just about to upload a picture of a capped bust half I bought recently but I see "You have exceeded your allotted disk space for attachments" Is that because I haven't been here very long or is it some other limitation??

I've never been entirely clear on that. This http://www.so-calleddollars.com/Events/Continental_Dollars.html would imply yes, but other coins restruck by Bashlow were made from copies of dies.

My 1917 Type 1 (obv)

This 1855 is special to me because it is the only coin I kept from the collection I inherited in the 1950's.

This is a badly beat up 1816. 1816 was "The Year without a summer" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_Without_a_Summer). I like this coin in spite of its condition because it has so much character. Imagine how many hands it passed through, how many times it bounced on a store counter or jingled in the pocket of someone riding horseback on some urgent errand.

Yes, that does make it interesting. I hope they don't start pumping out a lot of weird stuff after this, though.

Thank you. I'm never satisfied with it, but I keep trying.
