I am thankful for my PCGS US Coin Forum friends. Post a coin acquired in 2005 for which you are "thankful."

Here is a coin that I acquired a few months ago from forum friend, Barry:

    I am thankful for my children. My adorable daughter's favorite television character happens to have a lot in common with some forum members:

    << <i>There ya go. In real scheme of things that is what really matters. >>


    aint that the truth ! ! Kids are such are such a gift. ! !
    Here's my most treasured coin. A few years ago when things weren't as good finacially,
    my wife and i were rolling up change. We needed two quarters to finish another $10 roll, probably
    for milk for the kids. She dug in her purse and pulled out this 61 washington and a 59 in the same ms condition.
    she didn't even know what she had. Of course, the first thing i said is, "where did you get these"...............
    Happy Thanksgiving all ! ! We have a lot to be thankful for here in the good ole USA ! ! Happpy holidays everyone !

    MOC,

    In the spirit of Thanksgiving, thank you for the advice, however ill-intentioned.

    It's a given that family is what it's all about, but staying within the spirit of RYK's thread, here's one of my Favorites in 05:

    Matter of fact I'm off work until Dec 11th @11PM. I think I'm actually going to make that Baltimore show on Dec 9. Never been to a big-time Coin Show and I might even buy something. image

    Next are the folks here that put up with me.
    I make a pest of myself asking questions about how members get such great images.

    I'm thankful for the coin that started it all. When I was about 12 years old or so, my grandfather hid this in his mason jars with his buffalos, merc, and wheaties...
