I once knew a man from Kent,
Who visited the royal mint.
He wished to make a purchase,
2012 Silver Queen and Duchess.
But his wife managed the coin
And stopped his reason for going.
He walked away without a red
cent.
Sorry all I could come up with.

It makes me hot under the collar.
All I want to do is holler.
First trime, now trickel.
The fates are so fickle.

There was a collector named Mach.
He couldn't post without talking smack.
He didn't win the silver coin.
And now he's a sad lion.
Maybe later in the week he'll come back.
We''ll do this again soon, some real good honorable mentions, great job everyone. Also, I hope everyone had a nice Memorial Day weekend- And eternal thank you to all those who served our country and put their lives on the line, so we can drink beer and write limericks about coins. 🇺🇸
Winners, if you want to pm me your address, I'll get these out when I get a chance.

There once was a dealer from Iraq
A gem proof dollar he did crack
Send it back for a grade
A 64 was what he made
But at least it was a shoe-in for CAC

A Morgan Dollar from Philly
Thought tarnish made him look silly.
He got dipped too bright,
Now dealers all might:

Coins are here coins are gone
Coins in my cabinet 60 years long
Off to the sale to lessen my treasure
Now back home without any pleasure

All are winners who created a chuckle or two to within the community.
I know I'm late and won't try to debate.
But I had a thought about a coin I once bought.
I just knew that you would relate.
I once had an Ike dollar 66 shot 67.
So like a baller I gave PCGS a holler.
They took one look and shut the book.
And so I took it on the collar.

The Almost Victory
There once was a runner named Lee,
Who was fast as a hummingbird’s glee.
But the tape came in sight,
And he tripped in mid-flight—
Now he’s champion of place number three.
