Modern commems aren’t really my thing, so I filled the requirement for my 7070 set with a theme close to my heart. I’ve been in baseball either as a player or a coach for 41 years. Hence the purchase of this monstrosity
Im now quite happily finished with the “back page” of my set (in Dansco album terms).

I know this is nothing compared to most of the coins here. Still, I picked this up unexpectedly today.
I've always been interested in the Titanic. I had an example of each US coin type of 1912 except for the $5 & $2.5 gold. I was at a local shop selling some gold (given the current high spot). This was in the case. I couldn't resist
I immediately took it out of the holder so I could enjoy holding it.
Was in Boston to take in a Red Sox game with my girlfriend a few months ago, we were walking the city the next day and passed by the site of the Hull mint.
Started to read up on the history of the series, and had to have one for type.
This will be my only example - well, maybe! 😉

lol as a lifelong Yankees fan, it’s interesting to be in a relationship with a woman who eats, sleeps and breathes Red Sox! But regardless of who you root for, Fenway is a great place to watch a game and spend a day…. And Rafae Devers delivered a walk off extra inning single that night (v the Orioles) so the game was fabulous!

Thanks for the nice words on my new Pine Tree!
My sincerest condolences. I've also been an ardent Yankees fan for over 50 years and actually have a spare room upstairs affectionately called our Yankee room filled with 50 years of Yankees collectibles. Lived in Boston in the 80's with alot of NYYankees fans and went to fenway many times, but that's another story. Anyway' really like your new pickup! Zack.
Yes, I am a very passionate German collector. I do not endorse the Third Reich, but I do not erase history either. This is a gorgeous 1901A Prussian 5 FUNF Mark. I can tell you for an over 100 year old commemorative, it is as flashy and sexy as you can get for the grade.
Stunning luster, great eye appeal, minimal marks & a full on RD! Past pedigrees to Alan Epstein & Stewart Blay. EEPS, CAC & an old green tag too!

i picked up an unusual Sample slab. Most, if not all, of the denominations i have seen have a capitalized "C" for cents. This one has a lower case "c" in 10c.

Neat little find from my LCS over the weekend. I’ve seen these lots of times before but never with the bezel chain and original “tag” before. As close as I’ll ever get to owning one of these!

I agree that it lacks "COPY", but I do not think that it is a Gallery Mint product.

I will defer to you.
It is as the Seller stated it to be though.
The Seller is probably wrong then.

Tough data and only 5 finer at PCGS, plus CAC to boot! Wow! Very nice coin!
This came in the mail yesterday.

It's a lot nicer than this coin.
Does this have irregular reeding, or is it just the angle/reflection?

Really nice GuzziSport. Has a great look. Never owned one but maybe in the future.

Beautiful Buffy. I just admired that on DKRC, nice pickup.
Antique mall finds today in lewisburg West Virginia. I’ve never seen the coin cards before. The half is in a clam shell holder.
