    @asheland .... That is very nicely done.... However, for me, I do not want any commemoration of this episode - further commentary not necessary. Cheers, RickO

    No new purchases lately. I’ll post something from the past that I still have:

    I bought several of these back when, apparently, they were still in production, lately I have looked, the prices are kind of stupid lately on these Engelhard Australia bars..

    Great looking coin. I worked in downtown Baltimore for many years and learned much of their history. The Great Baltimore Fire which destroyed most of downtown Baltimore occurred in 1904 so it's a very neat and historic year to me. B)

    That’s interesting! I wasn’t aware of that fire, but I like the 1900 through 1909 era stuff, my grandmother was born in 1907. 👍

    My wife's father was born in 1907 and her mother was born in 1911 and I have several US gold coins from those dates. My parents were born in 1919 and 1921 so I don't have any gold coins from those dates although I do have a 1921 Peace dollar.

    @PerryHall that’s indeed cool when you can get coins to go along with special dates like that. 👍

    Funny thing with my grandmother being born in 1907, I don’t have any coins for that year… soon to change at some point I will get one I’m pretty sure.

    A nice, fully red IHC from 1907 would definitely do the trick for me. B)

    1911, 1919 and 1921 I also lack, I would have posted something here if I did. 👍

    I have close dates, 1912-14 Canada gold 5’s, and 1908 saint, 1909 $5 Indian, and my recent 1909-S Lincoln. An interesting era for sure.

    Well, I guess I have this one from 1921… It’s kinda just a widget but fun nonetheless:
