Although I prefer PCGS gold shield holders I liked these two Morgan's based on eye appeal. Buy the coin not the holder, right?
I'm a sucker for a nice cameo!

Nice ones!
🥱. Wish mine was something more exciting … but this and the RF 2 coin set were my last of 2023 ….
I have a different plan for 2024 - not buying the morgans, peace or ASEs from the mint.
Instead, going to work on my core interests which are the silver dollar and half dollars from the early 1870s to the 1930s, liberty peace and Carson city Morgan’s, and I’m going to end my pursuit of the modern “fancy bullion” offers that the mint sells.
Picked up this nice 14-D for my Dansco VF-AU circulate Lincoln set.
Then I picked up my first ever early Lincoln proof 1911 PR66 BN. My target series will be high grade BN with maybe some color for 1909-1916.

My last 2 purchases for 2023 were a British Penny Album and an Antique 1880 Richardson's Battery Quack Cure All Magneto Galvanic Pendant. The British Penny Album is actually for Mrs_Spud but I purchased it. The Richardson’s is to go with my Boyd’s Battery collection, I already had one, but this one comes with a leaflet I’ve never seen before. Both off of eBay. Here’s some of the auction pictures
