Well, it took longer than I thought but here they are!image

Thanks to Don for suggestions and help- he's the best!.image Major thanks to all who contributed to this birth coin project (a labor of love), you should be proud of yourselves! I can also appreciate forum members who may not have contributed money but were very helpful with suggestions.

This came about because there was an upwelling of generosity and appreciation towards Jester in testimony to his years of informative posts and images, great and broad-ranging (but self-effacing) numismatic knowledge, and his gentle but firm guiding voice on this forum. Thank you my friend for making this forum your cyber home for so many years. May it continue!image

Oh yeah, the coins... image I'm glad to say I love 'em both! I especially love the family grouping on the Polish proof 20 Zlotych. The beautiful gold 1/2 oz. Proof American Eagle is presented by the US Mint in an impeccable fashion. (Jester, PM sent)

    Polish silver and US gold, excellent choices Laurent. image Besides, NCLTs are the easiest to resell, if god forbid, the kid decides that he doesn't like coin collecting. image

    Ah, 'twas the Shroom
    who suggested
    the choice we accepted.

    All glory to he,
    who saw through the fog
    when too many choices
    had left me agog...image

    Dear Friends,

    Once again I must convey my sincere appreciation for what you have done for me and my family. I am truly overwhelmed by your generosity and good-heartedness. I never expected anything like the outpouring of warmth you have showered upon me. I am sure Matthew will grow up to see how you have contributed to his awareness and education, not to mention his coin cabinet! My wife is also awed by your kind gesture, and sends her greetings and heart-felt thanks.

    The coins are gorgeous, and I am humbled by your collective and individual magnanimity. Y'all are the best!
