When you posted your 1936 quarter, apparently you initially accidentally posted this 1939 quarter instead. I saw that, and I followed that with a wise crack that maybe you saw the last 9 in the date upside down. A few minutes later I refreshed my page and then saw your 1936 quarter posted in that spot. As such, I then deleted my comment right under your 1936 quarter (leaving just a “.”).

A day without fine wine and working on your coin collection is like a day without sunshine!!!
World War II is now getting worse. Germany invades the Soviet Union while Japan ends up attacking the United States at Pearl Harbor. The Axis Powers declare war on the US after we declared war on Japan.

Oh yes, you're right. I did that. I think I'm dyslexic. I got the 6 and 9 mixed up! They all look the same to me. 🤣 😉

Thanks @Catbert you officially drug us into the Depression. In order to get out we must get past 1941 but unfortunately that drags us into WWII.
Next up 1931.
Please pause when we get to 1933 in case Elite decides to post up. His coin so he has to post it
That is a gorgeous SLQ, @Catbert

Excellent
Ok @EliteCollection
We will pause until tomorrow to give you time to post your 1933 if you so choose. If not, we will resume tomorrow at 10am CT.
Sure thing. Here's a Great Photo of the 1933 DE.
