Post some of the coins you bought in 2004

...that you're particularly happy to own. Although I've bought a few that costs more, I'd have to say that hands-down, the coin that gave me the most gratification to buy was this one:

Thanks Dpoole.

I'll post a few others later, on down the thread.

  • For me, it's this one. My first gold coin that's not bullion.

    I collect the elements on the periodic table, and some coins. I have a complete Roosevelt set, and am putting together a set of coins from 1880.

    Man... Jeremy, got enough web space for pics? If you spreed it out over several posts, here and there, it'll give others more viewing/posting pleasure. ...not trying to push your buttons, just making an observation.

    That's gratitude for ya. OK, I'm not posting the rest then.

    What? because some folks think they're not "Registry Quality?" Oh well, I posted some coins I bought like the thread title said.

    Sorry guys.

    Ryana,

    Nice gold coins. I've only got two gold coins to my name, both are $5 bullion coins. One was a gift, the other is the first gold coin I've ever owned. I think I paid about $35 for it about five years ago. One of these days I'll get some of the earlier stuff. I'd like to have a Lib and Gaud type set of gold. That would be most cool.

    islemangu,

    That's cool.
