We work hard all week, so that we can participate in this hobby that we love.

I am relaxing with a hard scotch and a Labatt blue chaser, while looking at some of my beautiful walkers and Morgans That are home on holiday.

How about you? Who is with me? What are you drinking and what are you looking at?

PS don’t tell me your girlfriend or wife. I have one of those and will spend the whole day together tomorrow but tonight it’s about the coins! ;)

Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    Gin, lime and Fresca - and a digital album of coins I used to own. :D

    I’m still able to properly attribute bust quarters even after several strong drinks, so I’m not sure what to make of it. Alcohol does make reading some coin books more entertaining.

    I am soaking a problematic salivary gland with Kirkland Anejo Tequila (highly recommended at $20 @ 750 ml.) while looking for some inexpensive toned Lincoln PR coins to fill a few holes in my registry set. I need toned examples from the 1980s and 1990s which are hard to find NT.

    Rum and Diet . . . . . .my standard fare. Only pull out the Single Malt when I get super-serious.

    Looking at the Dansco Mercs (have a 1930-S in PC64 on the way) . . . those late 20's - early 30s seem to be the bane of my existence !!!) . . . .and a really fun VG-VF Library of Coins Buff album . . . . . . missing only the 13-S T2. Matched and just as someone would have put it together in the 1950s . . . .

    Over imbibing is not. That's one reason why I no longer imbibe.

    Goose island Christmas IPA. Oddly not looking at coins. I've turned to watches as a side collection and have been enjoying it immensely. Hate that I can only wear one at a time.

    What happened to your other arm?
