    Am I the only person going through my mental rolodex of coin dealers to think of any with the initials WNC? Ok, thx

    I had a dealer ship a coin today before I've even mailed the check. It's tremendously nice to be extended such courtesy.

    Nice bonus coin!

    I always get excited with little extras included. JT Stanton used to send extra BU coins with orders. I have a small collection of coins in flips from him. Another sadly gone dealer on ebay, Klynstra sent me at least 4 extra coins with every purchase, a lot of foreign silver and minor doubled dies and mint mark varieties. It definitely adds an extra flair to send bonus gifts.

    I typically send extras to my customers too and have sent Ikes, Buffalo nickels, Pcgs graded coins, small paintings, and the occasional video game.

    That is a very nice thing to do. Surely puts the dealer in a favorable perspective for return business. Cheers, RickO

    Oh ok cool! I will save them on Google maps in my “want to go” file. I travel thru NC for work sometimes, so if I can incorporate a visit to a coin shop it helps to make work more bearable. Thanx! 👍
