    Cool title Ray!
    when you leaving?

    There was an article in the paper the other day on what NOT to send troops overseas. Basically it was a list of everything I would send.

    Good luck to you. I'll pray for your safety and that, most importantly, you see your collections again.

    I'm a reservist myself so I can relate. Sounds like your stuff is in good hands.

    I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

    I sold a couple of coins to a guy stationed in Kuwait. It seems kinda strange that he'd be collecting from there, but if I was stuck there I'd be buying coins on eBay too.


    Anyway, thanks to people like you people like me can stay home and enjoy life in America.

    THANK YOU and stay safe!

    Just a note from recent experience - do not count on 2 weeks: my stepson was told a few days that lasted two weeks, 2 customers were told 2 weeks and were gone in 4-5 days, one of my Eagle Scouts was told get ready and left 3 days later.

    Thanx for being there. We all appreciate what your doing. Btw if you carry anything with you just make sure you don't lose it and start some iraki to collecting coins that i want. Just kiddin but in all seriousness God go with you and bring you home safe and sound to tell the story to your grandkids some days.
    Bear with me I'm new to the hobby and trying to learn something here.

    Thanks dad (MacCoin) for getting me into this.
