Craig was willing to sell us a dansco of silver BU Roosies (a lot toned) at a fair price.
He made out the package to my son.
Yesterday, we got home and the package was waiting. My son read his name, ripped it open, then proudly proclaimed "I have one just like you now Daddy!"
He spent a bit of time looking at the dimes and saying "ooohhh....pretty...hey, that one's cool...."etc.
He also wanted to keep it on his nightstand in his room. He later took it in to show mommy and was bouncing up and down with a huge smile when showing her "HIS" coins. He even went to my office to grab my loupe and he spent about 20 minutes looking at them with it (yes, he is learning how to use it...he isn't an expert, but he is young yet
)
Almost all of what we have are HIS but this came to him in HIS name (like some of the giveaways he has won here under my name) and they all are HIS and he loves them a ton!.
It was so cool, and made me so proud, to watch as he grows and then proclaim how he loves the chances to be like daddy!
So, Craig, THANK YOU! As you said in the PM, maybe this is a budding YN...and, I think he is as he likes to grab the loupe and look at them and has some favorites already.

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
