I think my wife would love this as a centerpiece in our living room what do you guys think?
I stalked the floor at FUN and bought 3 coins that spoke to me in the last couple hours before I went home. I have looked at the 1826 at Hallmark Coins (Kodak, TN) at 4 shows over the past 2 years and finally bought it.
The 1820 and 1828 just have an undeniably original circulated look and have toned nicely in an album or Wayte Raymond, etc.
I don’t have the capability to capture their look with my subpar camera skills. I am beyond thrilled with these 3.

Btw that poster is of Howard Sharfman’s red book set that was auctioned in September. It was given as a favor at its lot viewing at Chicago ANA.

Nope. But we do. No worries.
I think she would like it hung over the bed with special lighting to accent it.
Like some altar!!

Just remember when you bow to the altar to not forget to bow to her…..😂
Beautiful coins. Congrats and thanks for sharing.

On the ceiling?
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
You could ask her (a path I recommend) or just hang it.... If you choose the second path, be sure you have taken a picture, because I am reasonably certain it will disappear - replaced by a needlepoint or suitable landscape.

Love your busties!
I have a large framed photo “painting” of my A&R half that was in my office that has not found a place at my home because my wife doesn’t share my passion. Yet I haven’t given up since I will wear her down eventually!
No!
And I very much like your newps.
Thanks.

I think that your poster should be front and center in your living room, because you are living the dream and you can say to your Wife I just need a couple of more to fill out a complete set like this poster.
She has it on the floor next to the fire place. Maybe that should tell you something
Bedroom ceiling would be nice. lol

Lovely bust halves you got there, Paul. Great choices!

Dont think that is going in the living room, maybe in the "man cave" though. I have been in their B&M store before. Nice people, owner is David Hall, no relation to PCGS.
Not sure about your wife liking the poster or the coins, but I like them.
All three are really nice, in the grades I find attractive, affordable (to me) and that I collect.
I purchased a 1828 CBH Square 2, Small 8s, Sm. Letters in PCGS VF30 from David Khan Friday. He always has something I like.
I don't care what she says ... good job!
BTW I tell my wife I'm not spending money ... I'm buying money.
Then she says "yeah, whatever"
Sugar magnolia blossoms blooming, heads all empty and I don't care ...
Mrs_Spud would like that poster and would let me put it up at home. But I wouldn’t for security reasons. I wouldn’t want strangers to see it and end up getting robbed. We rent our house and the landlord has maintenance people come over too often. I don’t leave any coin magazines or anything coin related out. My coins are in the bank vault, but a burglar might come looking if they think I have a bunch of rare coins lying around.
That’s why I keep my poster of the periodic table of coins that PCGS put out a few years back in my office at work.
Mr_Spud
Smart man. I don’t put anything out either. My wife hates that I always have the curtains shut. However, I doubt a burglar would enjoy what he would find inside when he opens the door 🐺 🐕

Does she own a copy of Overton?
If so, I think she will like it.
Might end up in the cr*pper. Peace Roy

We have a floor mat that says “neighbors have better stuff”. 😎
I read to her from it every night. She loves it.

Bow? might be more like caving to her or begging to put that centerpiece up... funny.
Great, great, great coins by the way.
A Barber Quartet is made up of Nickels, Dimes, Quarters, and Halves.
Very nice coins.
Guys, this is a great gift idea for your wife. She will love a copy. Just get her the 1st Edition in case she doesn’t like it, which I would find it hard to think that she wouldn’t, so you can get it cheaper and sell it hopefully at a profit. Use 1/2 the profit to buy her a new gift and the remaining profit to get some new coins!
Let us know how that works for you!
