Wow, my 500th post. I have really enjoyed this coin forum. Since no one I know really cares about my hobby, I've shared it with all of you and it's been great. I been collecting since the 1970's and still learn a lot here. I wanted to post something different for my 500th. We see many people post there newest, or favorite coins. I decided to post the 5 coins I will NEVER have for my PCGS AU or better set. Here to another 500 posts . . .

Congrats on reaching 500! I agree that this forum has been great for both learning but also sharing the fun of this hobby. Like you, I don’t have many folks in my life who would otherwise care about coins. Perhaps surprisingly, this is kinda a niche hobby… 🤓

Congratulations, @Russell12 . While you’ve learned, you’ve also helped us too by your posts!

Apparently, you’re not aware, but it’s tradition on this forum that when a member gets their 500th post, they’re expected to have a “Giveaway” of some sort. You can do that on this thread by editing the title a bit, and then describing your giveaway by adding it to your original post.

I’ll wait to see those edits. Thanks in advance.

Most of us will never have those coins.

I thought it was tradition for a random member to send the original poster one of the coins he has posted!?

It’s been nice to have you here.

Now let's see...I do have some uncirculated pennies in plastic coin tubes from the 1960s.

As a kid, that Hawaiian was always my dream coin. Forty five years later I finally got one.
