    My last mint purchase was the 2018 introductory P and D American Innovation rolls. Not sexy to say the least.

    As usual super nice purchase! I do so enjoy seeing your post especially on Instagram

    My last purchase is a very common token. Matter of fact I wouldn’t even consider it
    but it has a shattered obverse die and have not seen one like that.
    .
    Otherwise my last purchase for the year that is very scarce
    Conder token. It was held in customs for almost a month and I thought it would
    never make it to me. 24 days later, it did!

    thats a smasher.

    Will be on its way to our host after the holidays. Best cherry-pick of the year for me. Never thought I would find one in the wild...

    My last purchase in 2018 was an ASE as a gift for a birth in the family. Unless something pops up in the next few days that I simply must have.... ;) Not likely, but it could happen. No coins for Christmas... However, I must say, I received incredible gifts (both quantity and quality)...I am still overwhelmed... have to just sit among them all for a while... :) Cheers, RickO

    @WildIdea Awesome gifts from your parents!! I love the box and pop-outs as I have a few too.
    What wonderful and admirable parents you have. I admire them for all they have done and continue to do.
    I bet your Mom has a great boutique.

    Thanks! @coinsarefun

    I'm def not hurting on the parents department. Married 47 years now. Dad 71 Mom 66. It seems they don't do anything that isn't for someone else or each other. It's almost sickening! I mean, after I get through my day raising my family, my business, employees and clients, maybe a random stranger or two I almost want to just pop and retreat into something private that's purely selfish, and I do, but not them. They never get tired of helping others in every aspect of their lives.

    They did transfer their love for older things onto me from the very start. As boomers, they didn't have much and asked for little more than a family and some peace and security, but they loved antiques and had a few mentors early on. In the day, my Dad would refinish furniture for a dealer and in return would get a piece to own. I can still point those out at their house. As a little boy I would either have to wait in the car or walk around antique stores with my hands in my pockets and have to sit patiently all day at an auction for the one item at the end. I grew up in a household full of breakable treasures. I got an eye and a sense of how to care for delicate things early on from them. But they never stepped up and bought anything with any serious money, they didn't have it. I guess they do have some dough now AND the time to do what they want and travel some. My brother and I want them to spend all their money and "leave us a bill".

    Pistareen from the Newman sale in November, graded AU58. I needed a 1721-dated coin for my Prime Number set, and this also is a required coin for the "World Coins Circulating in Early America" set. Of course, it's in an NGC holder for now, so I can't officially use it yet.

    This has got to be the last of the year for me. I just grabbed a 1910-S RPM-1 Lincoln off ebay, This is one of the hardest to find of the CONECA top 100, with only a certified population of 34. 21% complete on this set now.

    My last purchase was way back in January, a 1968 D Kennedy. I spent a whopping $53 on coins this year, and it wasn't like space memorabilia was picking up the slack. Over the 12 years I've been collecting space artifacts, this was my 3rd lowest year of purchases on space memorabilia, and a good chunk of that was framing pictures that I'd purchased in previous years.

    I'm not sure if I'm getting glutted with items, or if I just haven't seen any items in 2018 that I just GOTTA' have (at the prices necessary to purchase said items).

    Picked two up today. My last addition of the year, Not in a league with all of the above. Good cause and it devastates so many families. I actually like the humble design yet it had limited appeal, and this coin was way overpriced.
    This coin will have a very limited collector base. Just one thing. Have you checked the mintage? It is under 11,000. I think the next closest Commemorative Uncirculated Clad half dollar is the 2017 BOYS TOWN CLAD UNC @15,561
    OK, few people collect clad halves but an MS 70 piece would be worth holding….maybe(?)
