gxseries Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 A crappy ruble: Most likely minted in 1793. Crappy but I didn't pay much for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burks Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 SURPRISE PACKAGE!!!!! I got these great coins from CCG today. The bottom left one is going to be a pocket piece. The two on the right are pretty hard to find in my area, they were the "surprise" part of the package. Awesome stuff. It made my day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiffibunny Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 My mailman brought me a Seated Liberty Dollar, unfortunately he is the worst mailman on the face of the planet, because instead of giving it to me all I got was the orange freakin' slip. I think he hates me. He doesn't ring the doorbell, doesn't knock... Now I have to get up early on Monday and go to the post office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlavicScott Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Hit paydirt today!!! 1. Canadian Mint set with the colourized teddy bear in stocking, from Tammy!!! GREAT LOOKING!!!!! (I must be careful with these Canadian colourized coins. I think I am going to get into them, deeeeep!!) 2. Some upgrades for the British decimal album, from a friend on CU boards, via eBay. 3. The Russian 2000 2 rouble "City Heroes" series of 7, from Grigori over at chervonets.com (also a Lithuanian 5 lita bi-metallic and 1 lita note) 4. IHS booklet (my other collection) from 1953 Grand National. A little tattered on the spine, but still a nice addition to the collection.

You could complain, I mean if you see the guy walk past your place and not even bother to look that's pretty crappy. I used to have one like that too, I think it was in North Saint Paul.

Tiffibunny Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Yeah, what I don't get is... it must take him a few minutes to write out the stupid slip, why not just ring the bell or knock louder? Grrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 I got a Congress 2-coin proof set that I bought of eBay which I plan to use as a gift for the grab bag at our coin club holiday meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grrrr You know, the post service is a lot better than here. They don't even deliver a SINGLE parcel probably except if you are disabled. And you have to show ID from time to time even though you got the slip... etc... I.e. the postman just delivers papers and slips... P.S. parcels as in anything that's not in envelope format is considered parcel and hence, collect it yourself... bleh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 50cents Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Being a disabled vet don't help much either. My postman knows that i stay at home . I think they just get lazy and its easy to leave a slip in the box. My newest coin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 That's some interesting toning there. Pretty in its own sort of ugly way Cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
