Food for thought

Now that I have over 25% or the early commemoratives. I'm sure that the ones I have are the ones that are more easily acquired. Now to make it more interesting for the remainder I'm going to try and obtain only those coins, in early commemoratives, that have mintages lower than 10,000. Since I came to that conclusion, last week, I've picked up one and it's a 1935 Texas with a mintage of 9,996 and a grade of MS65 but looks MS67. It truly is a remarkable looking coin.

I have been buying from Teletrade and Heritage of late and I seem to like those two sites much better than eBay. I'm not sure if it's a trust thing or what. I know that I haven't been disappointed from either site so far.

Good news from a family member. I have a nephew who has expressed interest in taking my coin collections when I no longer need them. He's a responsible young man who's going to college to become some type of a Doctor. I think if he did end up with my coins he'd keep them over selling them as our deal was to keep them in the family. If an all out emergency were to take place then he's allowed to do what he needs to do in order to deal with said emergency.

That's enough journaling for now.
