Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Post a coin, token or medal that represents Thanksgiving to you :)

I've been building out a 1870 Pilgrim Jubilee Memorial So-Called Dollar collection which is fitting here. Here are a few:

Silver-Plated Copper - HK13 - MS64 PCGS

Silver-Plated Copper - HK13 - MS65 ANACS

Gilt Copper - HK-15A - MS66 PL NGC

    Sometimes you can get overwhelmed with all the things you need to get done. The kind of stuff that wakes you at 3 in the morning. It's easy to lose sight of all the good things.....there is so, so much to be thankful for.....
    As far as coins, I'm thankful that they afforded me a decent living throughout my career ! A career that was fun and enjoyable....

    I don’t have any Thanksgiving themed coins. I could post a coin I’m thankful for, but that would be all of them. :D
    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    Great posts everyone!

    Beautiful coins all. I'm glad we all have a lot to be thankful for this year. This has been a great year for me in general and I'm glad for all that we have shared here.

    @Lakesammman Thanks for the compliments. I like to pick up things here and there and sometimes I wonder how it will all come together, and then I tell myself to worry about that another day. I was lucky with these and hope to fill out the rest of this mini-collection with the other metals one day. Great pick by Shylock to bring back the memories.

    @coinsarefun I'm inspired by your collection and your optimism. Thanks for sharing your story here. It's wonderful having you on the boards.

    @jabba Great coin to help us remember to focus on the things that are truly important to be thankful for.

    @BryceM Beautiful specimen and great family connection. Always good to have a sense and appreciation of history.

    I am not a commemorative collector. But I do love some of them. Nothing's better than a '20 Pilgrim to represent Thanksgiving.

    Mine doesn't deserve to sit alongside the beauties that precede it. Ha. Not even close. I bought it on ebay for $41. Still, I like the look.
