My dad passed away this past Thursday (08/02/18), please post any coin from 1933

He almost made it to 85, he had stage 4 cancer for the past couple of years but was able to live like he didn't have it, until the past few weeks. He did get to pass on his own terms: at home, no pain and no tubes or wires, plus being surrounded by family and friends was a big plus. It did help ease the sting. We all will get to this stage someday, it would be nice to be able to make that choice - but not all of us will get that chance.

    So very sorry to hear this. I’m very likely to be in the same boat soon. It’s incomprehensible.

    Sorry, no ‘33 coins to share.
