Bought My first set of World Coins

Purple73 · August 16, 2005 4:42AM

I was at the coin shop today just poking around to see what new stuff he had got in. He had a really nice perfect VF30 reeded edge Half Dollar(U.S.) 1837. Oh man that coin was awesome. Nice and Original too.

He aslo had some new Currency in. I almost bought a $1 Horse Blanket.

He did have a very nice In original box a 1924 Elgin Pocket watch. It is in Beautiful shape, but needs oiled. So I put money down on it and he will have it serviced.

While looking at the Pocket Watch I noticed this really cool looking set. So I asked to see it. Man this thing is really cool!
Needless to say I didn't get the Horse Blanket.

PURPLE!

Great set! I especially like that coin with the bee on it. I've taken to collecting "bee coins" and have never seen that one. It's on the list now.

Thanks Folks!

I really like that fact that they have so many coins and all have a different design. It's not one theme, like prez's.

That's what caught my eye!

Oh I did buy the Pocket watch too. that was 95.00

This set was 22.50.

PURPLE!
