Let me start my list

1 - everything

Not just coins but currency as well.

For currency, I would put on my list some large and medium size currency sleeves, some 4 pocket pages and some additional countries.

For coins, I already got one thing on my list, a set of certified Buffalo Dollars. I would also like to complete my MS67 birth year set and possibly a couple of morgans and Peace dollars.

I really need some more intercept shield boxes, these Liberty Bell Halfs are cluttering up my house...

I wouldn't mind an 1893-S PCGS MS65DMPL Morgan with bull's eye toning.

(This is a list for Santa, he can come up with anything!)

I'll be with my grandparents next weekend... they will probably take me to the coin store near them, which I like a lot (been there once).

I am also thinking of a digicam... and my parents got me this, framed:

If you can't see because it's too small, all of the black is actually text- the entire book of Numbers (Bamidbar), from which I read my Bar Mitzvah Torah reading... the painting encompasses 1/5 of the Torah and is much more vibrant than the picture you see I've been in his shop in Safed twice and got this at a local Israel fair... I LOVE it! You should see the other stuff he has- it's phenominal (by the way- took 9 years for him to do the 5 books)

Books, books,and books. I need to learn a WHOLE lot more. I have a redbook and a one on Buff Nicks. But I need one on modern proofs and MS coins.I will probably need to buy them myself as my interest does not receive much support from family and friends. Any suggestions on titles would be appreciated.

I am with coinrookie, I need more reading material on my current passions, the Ike, SBA, Sac and Peace dollars and Kennedy Halves. Could also use a very good eyepiece. I have two small devices but I have problems with changing vision in my eyes due to diabetes and it makes it harder to get a really good look sometimes. I could also use a couple hundred self seal 2X2's for that huge lot of Halves I bought back in October. I bought a Green Monster ASE box online earlier this year, with all the tubes with it, and it is filling up fast with my raw coins. Sure is handy but it weighs a ton. (I am about twenty raw coins away from 500 according to my inventory)

As for coins: Big list there. Santa knows I have a few gaps to fill in my raw Kennedys set and need to continue to upgrade my Ikes in dandy PCGS slabs. Thanks to some of you fine foks, I have gotten a very good start without breaking my limited budget.

And on the big picture list: Santa, please help me to listen more closely, to help others that need it more than me and give me the patience to suffer fools gladly.

And I would like it all on my desk by 9:00am Monday, all wrapped up in a pretty box with an appropriate card. (if you are gonna dream, dream big)

Happy Hannaukah to my Jewish friends. Merry Christmas to all.
