2015 and 16 were different so most likely, yes.
I liked, and purchased the 2015...not so much the 2016 version.
Well that's the inherent nature of art
He's working on the owls now and knows everyone's going through withdrawals so I assume the wait should me much longer, a few weeks maybe? Just a guess. Gotta be quick on the draw with them owls though. They go fast.
He said in another tread he had them ready just needed to heat treat them ! so it could be any time of day ! but I think he will mint more 2017 silver than last year
No new owls yet, but here is the new 2017 Greater Jacksonville (FL) Coin Club 70th Anniversary Medal, silver satin. All were already in ANACS holders. All club members received a copper example free. Way to go GJCC !

I have a couple of the hologram Merlin's, and cant wait to see this years offerings. And I sighed up on the KOTCT site, but I flunked the math exam given at registration, so they probably wont except me.
Bruce don't feel bad, I had my 11 year old help me. I felt like I was taking an entrance exam. I hope the questions don't get harder when you order the tokens.

I was joking, I actually knew what 10*2=, all on my own, but had to use all my fingers & toes.
Oh what wonders will come out of that killer head of his for 2017????? He's gonna have a tough time beating the Merlin. That was a stroke of pure artistic genius! But I'd bet bottom dollar he won't disappoint

There's a guy on CT that said my Merlin looked "cartoonish"....I just laughed.
I don't think joining the group purely to order the DC tokens is right. I have a member that will vouch for me but decided not to join then as world coins aren't really my thing. I'm still considering rethinking that to broaden my knowledge of world coins though but imo to join just so you can order their DC club tokens at cost isn't the best of reasons. I'm wondering if maybe that's why you haven't heard back though. Maybe they're deciding what to do. Or maybe they're cool with it to get some new blood in and it's just taking awhile

Anybody who signed up because of the Dan Carr 2017 KOTCT ordering notice above heard back from Sir Humpybong since his initial email?
I received an email from castle KOTCT initially saying my registration request was received then one from humpybong asking questions to verify I wasn't a spambot and lastly an email from castle KTOCT saying my account was activated. 3 total only one from humpybong.
I did get a personal chat from Barry (humpybong) while on the forum the other night, super nice guy and very welcoming.
I recently opened an Instagram account, and posted this video of the Daniel Carr 1917 Peace Dollar. This shows how amazing these things are! The holder is an ebay holder, and I stuck an old NGC label in there for giggles. I need to pick up a few more of these before they go off sale. Enjoy!

I just had two months back to back. the other half would hound me endlessly if I dropped high five figures.

oih82w8, Is it the obverse of the 2016 you dislike?
I prefer the 2015 by only a couple points, I really like the Princess head.
I'm with the 2015 as per above, and skipped the 2016 (I don't resell so just buy what I want). I hope the 2017 is more like the former.
Well, just Love coins, period.
if it were more like anything it would be less unique
He said in another tread he had them ready just needed to heat treat them ! so it could be any time of day ! but I think he will mint more 2017 silver than last year
Personally I like 2016 better. Can't wait to get a glimpse of 2017
I predict tomorrow morning
We will be watching.........
I like like 2015 better . to me it is more in tradition with its heritage
I don't care for the 2016...I like the Liberty Head (Pikes Peak) version.

Not yet...but then again, when I stated that my collecting interests were U.S. Type coinage and currency, that may have put me in the "nope" pile.

I went to the club and got right in. Guess the email got bumped by Aol. Nice to become a member and explore the table.

I may have "blackballed" from this group since I have not heard anything from them since my last reply to their questions.
