The Pictures Below are Items My Wife and My Self received Through the Mail as a Gift from a Mercury Dime Registry Participant. He told Me at the First of the Week He was Sending a Little Something My Direction. When I Opened the Package it Took About 3 hours before I got up Off From the Floor.
    In My Opinion Warm Hearted,Caring and Gracious People Should Be Recognized. Hopefully He Will give Me Permission to Post His Name Here. Got Permission So Here is the Guy I am Talking About. AL Palmieri another One of the Texans. Thanks AL.
      In My 54+ years on this Earth this is the First Time something like this has Happened. For Sure it has left a Impression and My Only Hope is that I will be able to Meet this Person in Person.
        And People Say the Registries are Only for Showing Off and the Rich. Well Folks I Do Not Think that is a True Statement.
          Thanks for Listening: Ken

              Ken,

              I just goes to show the quality of the Merc collectors. You never know when an act of random kindness will occur. I am very impressed with the beautiful toning... ooh, I am sliding over the edge towards the I love toning side... ooops.

              BTW, our little band of collectors keeps growing, the registry is now in the upper 40s in a short time.

              Rick: My Picture Does Not give that Coin the Justus it Deserves. It is a NGC 67 Coin that is Stunning in Person.

              Those are a couple of great-looking Mercs, Ken, and the salt and pepper set is elegant. Al must be quite a thoughtful and generous guy. This is a welcome change from the griping that's often seen on the boards.

              KEN,
              You are right this deserved a thread.
              congrats.
              Al you are the man. Great job.
              It is things like this that make the Merc folks here a special group.
              We kid around with each other and have fun.
              I am happy and proud to be a small part of this fine group.
              now If I stoped sliding down the ladder that would be great lol.
