  1. I would probably be interested in a couple. I'll check out what you have left in the thread you create. I got my eye on a couple of them.
  2. Our little towns are awful. Never know when you go out to start the vehicle in the morning if your gonna have a catalytic converter on it or not. It's a gamble anymore.
  3. Probably better than Kys. Ours probably have a meth pipe or oxy cotton pill or something on it.
  4. I love reading history around that time period. I'll give it a read soon as it's released.
  5. I kinda wish this glacier out here in my driveway would hurry up and melt.
  6. Very cool collection. Hopefully one of these days mine will look like that. I've been slowly reading some amazing books and old numismatic magazines and adding to it.
  7. That Mars rover up there must run on gas or diesel then. It dumping carbon emissions all over Mars. Some people own property up there. Lol. Remember when you could buy a piece of land on Mars.
  8. It got so iced over here the other night the possums was breaking in to get out of the ice and snow. Lol. I put him in a tote and fed him up and took him up the road and turned him loose where my dogs wouldn't kill him. He acted like he was starved out. It eat like a hog. I guess couldn't break thru the ice to eat anything. He was probably happy he broke in.
  9. That's what I always thought. I thought the climate changed every so many thousand years due to Earth not spinning on the exact same path every time around the sun. It ever so slowly changes its course over several years and that's what causes it to change. Kind of like the Greenland and Iceland thing. And keeps repeating its cycles over the centuries.
  10. I just went and checked your collection out and WOW. Brother that is a very impressive set. Congrats on the #9 set. You have some stunning jeffs in there. Those are some awsome pics of them also. I'd say alot of those were very hard to come by. Very low population in the high grades. That's very awesome my friend.
  11. I appreciate it my friend. I will start saving a little back out of each paycheck and put it back just for that. Hopefully I can save enough up for here by summer time.
  12. I would love to check them out. I'll look em up. I've been working on a few more quarters them I'm going to start on Jeffersons. I'm still trying to finish a set of 2020 W quarters in ms65. I'm still working on some earlier Washington's also. I really like them too.
  13. I think that's what I'm going to start doing. Start searching for very nice raw examples. Then save them up for bulk submissions. Would probably save alot of money in the long run. Spend quite a time looking for the perfect coins. I bout have enough raw coins for a bulk submission saved up already. From proof sets and things. But they are all different denominations. When sending in bulk do they all have to be the same thing? Like all nickles or all quarters, etc ?
  14. Those ones you posted when I first met you on here were very nice. I couldn't even imagine what you had tied up in those two. I seen some similar on Ebay and they were pricey. I remember that one had a really cool die crack in it.
  15. I think im gonna try and start on them. Seems like I can always find better deals on them also than some of the other coins I've been working on. I also really like the design of them. And the size is perfect. I really enjoy the older Jefferson nickles. I like the new design also but not as much as the older one.
  16. That's interesting. In the package the reverses are touching the plastic from the 2 dollar bill. Wonder if it's something to do with some kind of science behind that.
  17. My thread is your thread to my friend. Everyone of you all are more than welcome to talk about anything you all want on my threads. I enjoy reading your alls post
  18. I didn't know they had them in the 97s till I say your post. I will have to try and work on getting one of those next. I think im starting to become a nickle collector. I really enjoy all the nickles I have pretty well
  19. I was reading an article that was talking about them. Then I decided I needed to get one once I saw they were special. I think I saw it in one of the top 100 modern coins or something. Then I looked at them on Ebay. Wanted one forever. Finally found a set someone had in their personal collection. They was breaking up collection selling it all. Figured be a good chance to get one that hadn't been looked thru and culled by people searching for keepers to send in. It turned out to be very nice. There's not a single blemish on it other than the toning.
  20. I'd say by you having sent in so many mine is probably almost destined to a 69 or lower. Sounds like it's hard to get a 70. I'd probably not even try it. There's no way I could ever send in a bulk submission. It would cost me more than it be worth it on that one coin.
  21. I done tried it. Lol. I just folded it right over backwards on the other side. Didn't hurt it a bit. The way the packaging is made makes it really simple to do it. If it will work
