My brother said that if he could get out of his wheelchair for a couple of seconds, he would stand in front of a 'kneeler', sit back down, thank them for their 'service', and roll away. Thank you all for your service to the United States of America, past, present, and future!

For the 99th time, I love this thread.

The 2021 looks like the evil twin sister of the 1921.

I haven't had or seen that at any time. No problems. Just the same ol same ol Bradford Exchange, constantly. I don't think it's from Viet Nam, probably from a little ol' grocery store out of N Georgia. Just sayin'.

Glad your thrilled Mohawk. If it would've just closed its mouth all of the way it wouldn't remind me of the Ex so much. Nah, that wouldn't help, too many similarities. I'll work through it. celebrity it is.

I think GBrad lives next to that convenience store in Georgia. Greg, part ownership? Just Kidding, Detective Bradford.

Appalachiosaurus is the spitting image of my Ex in divorce court. Hair even looks the same.

I might as well not give in now, yet, and get my first credit card ever, They sent me a Debit card 15 yrs ago, have used it sparingly. Join NGC, etc...It's a rare card anyway, debit only, no credit. One of my bankers that I've known for 45 years told me that "your credit sucks". He said I really don't have much of a credit record, but the good news is I don't owe anything. I didn't ask for my score, it really doesn't matter. Cash only for me, don't order on Amazon or Ebay etc... You say no more cash, That's going to throw a wrench into my life journey for sure, I won't have a choice. I'll probably end up quite happy, Besides, I'm getting tired of store clerks asking me if I want my change back. What? H yes I want it back.

I worked on the railroad for 48 years, and yes, triple stacked on the track. We would run over stacked coins very slowly, inching to them, holding them in place with a stick. Had a lot of fun. Sometimes I would tape a full soda to the inside of a boxcar knuckle where it couldn't be seen. Then watch when the other person would couple another boxcar into the one with the soda, them standing next to it, 40 tons of iron against iron, powerful spray foam shooting everywhere. Blue collar boredom, guess that's why I never made it to CEO.

I said right between an EF45 and MS65, but what I meant was 'to and including' XF45 and MS65. LOL I knew I nailed it! If I ever show up at NGC asking for a grading job, it would behoove them to escort me to the parking lot.

Every time I'm typing in my password, the Bradford Exchange advertisement pops up. My knee jerk reaction was to blame Greg (Gbrad), but I guess I need to update my poop up blocker.

It would be a good 'guess the grade' coin for everyone. I think I already nailed it though. Right between an XF45 and an MS65.

LOL

Come on Greg, tell us how your 'scootching' that A over to the left a little.

I'm a GC fan as well. There's my vote. I told my wife a year ago that I was going to give you all of my gold coins when I hit the lottery, it just hasn't worked out yet. Don't wait on me though Greg, I can only afford 1 quick pick a drawing. Good luck hunting!

No one thinks bigger is better, except for my ex.. Why not a 5 trillion coin? That ought to last till Spring, then we'll get another credit to cover that credit.

I think it's natural toning, but price is more than 200%. Welcome to the chat boards, and enjoy the hobby.

I'd like to see the reverse of the 1890.

All I know is that my collection of fake Morgan dollars that my wife bought on line when I first got into numismatics, (she didn't know any better) is going to the garage ready for my grandkids to tack on to the fence post and target practice on. Boiling, uh uh, a crime deterrent from hell for sure.

I usually skip the ones with no punctuations, small cap letters where they don't belong, etc... Sometimes I read a few so called sentences, but it's so distracting I lose focus on what they're trying to convey, and I read a few more sentences for my own amusement.

I don't order from the mint, but I have to say, that is one beautiful coin you have there James Z !!!

Forgot, just kidding by the way. Luckiest man I know, what will you find next, suspenseful.

I contacted your friend, he wants the coin back. He said he knew it was there all along, he was just testing you.

Guess I should've read the whole post closer. A reproduction, my bad.

The second I saw that '55, James, it looked fake and cleaned. Good luck.
