    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Very nice.
    Celebrate her and the purchase. <3
    My wife had always been my pillar of strength for thirty years (married for twenty three and a half) and she never woke up from her sleep on a Saturday morning last month.
    Take care and stay blessed.

    Hi PT,

    I think it was "passing signals", not turning signals.
