You read my mind with this post. This is one of those times I wish I was one of those “super wealthy, have nothing but time on my hands” kinda guys. I’d be up there with a megaphone handling business for 2026 expectations. Instead I’ll be in front of my classes, desperately lecturing patriotism and history to the 12 and 13 year olds to whom I teach Civics.
God help them if they try to go all modern/progressive on our 250th coinage. The thought is giving me nightmares. Let’s see some classic liberty and long celebrated design related imagery.
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
