Do it in one picture. I’ll start.

With apologies to Dave Lange, of course.

At first this picture made me sad. But there was a sense of relief when I saw there were no Library of Coins albums, Dansco 7070s or Wayte Raymond boards.

You could donate them to some new newmismatic inclined youngn.

Yes, for Bust Dimes. Don’t worry, I think I removed the coins.

The hot dogs you're about to roast over that flame should be delicious if served with a can of CAC gold baked beans

Times must be tough when it comes down to this to stay warm. Will be an easy way to light the hippy lettuce.

This is a heavily used mantra, but over the years, I have come to buy both the coin, and the slab. Why? Because the slab makes a difference in value (or perceived value). This is why most serious collectors who buy higher end coins, almost always buy graded coins in PCGS or NGC slabs. I consider ICG and Anacs to be raw, but genuine. Just my $0.02.

Running out of kindling. Fortunately the weather is improving, so these may survive another season.

I donated a dozen old Whitman folders to my local shop to place in the hands of new collectors. It made me feel good. I have burned family photos in the past, so I don't judge those who start fires.

jackpine20 · April 11, 2023 9:52AM

I paid $1875 for a coin valued at $975, housed in an immaculate Rattler Holder. So, there is that. I guess I'm a patriot.

You used to be about the music! :'(

Haven't decided whether DCarr's post is in need of a soundtrack... 2001: A Space Odyssey or Planet of the Apes

Both films are from 1968

When I was 10 years old (in 1968) we went to a movie theater to see a double feature. "Planet of the Apes" was scheduled first, followed by "2001 A Space Odyssey". We sat there watching and it took almost half an hour before we realized the movie order had been switched.
