I saw this and thought 1951D, i probably have a bunch of those in a ziplok baggie somewhere. 

then i got a closer look, that's an S! My book has very few of those! I ran by the bank to get into the safety depository box to get my littleton out, i don't trust my collection to just anyone, and wouldn't you know it, there was already one in there! A double! 

Happy Tuesday, everyone

I'm putting the quarter first

you'll see why

daily W. Brought a smile to me face.

Aruba is but a small island nation off the northern coast of South America.

So what's Arabia then?

The "market" is your fan base here which is limitless and notoriously difficult to quantify.  

 

Not too hard to please though, apparently. 

Oh no, not again. I wish this guy would go away already. 

Parking lot find. Too bad not an Arabian parking lot.

Me thinks you are doing just fine!  I think the "market" will agree.  

Thank you, although I'm not sure of which "market" you speak.

I guess I'm off the hook for dominating the RWB Saints DE Thread !!  

On a more serious note, I do wish more newcomers and already-registered veterans were inquiring here and contributing on the more established threads in the US COINS section.  I hope they are not "afraid" to post -- I am sure many are beginners with limited knowledge, as was I only 5-10 years ago.  

Thought there'd be more posts on the older Morgan, Saint, and gold coin threads in that section.  Hopefully, it comes.

To be honest, i am dominating my own thread, so who cares? And did most of your posts there contain pics? Or just comments. Because most of mine contain pics of brand new coins, five, six, sometimes seven days a week. Let's see anyone else here try that little trick. And oh yes, I've been doing it for almost 2 years straight. Except for my ban. I'm not trying to be an a hole, just pointing out that there will literally never be a comparison. Thank you. 

And if anyone took a cursory glance at the threads before posting, of course they aren't going to contribute. There are only a few nurturers here. I can count them on two hands. The rest butt in with demeaning comments. Why bother? I'm trying to change things, make things more beginner friendly, like me. But it's being met with great resistance. Change is scary. Oh well. I like you though, I'm not talking about you. Don't worry.

You've made an admirable use of our host's band-width... 544 posts spread over 19 pp.  Looks like you're a contender!  

By the way, nice thing about all those posts, while yes, I'm a pontificator, there is a coin in almost every post, compared to all these other big mouths who post nothing but words words words. Boring.

Not my intention, but the finds demand to be seen.

Funny how you cannot see the date looking at it up closely, but from a distance... it's a '27 alright.

You calling me a liar?

You just hadda say that! What about your credibility now? Pffft!  

I said from day one, all finds are circulation from that day, unless otherwise noted. Consider yourselves noted. And if i were really worried about my credibility, i think I'd be elsewhere. 

Whatever silver is magnetic to, that's me. Lots of magnetism in the old silver. 

Sorry site. Super busy day with BTS and everything. I drop the kiddies off, then stay outside the school for the whole first day, in case something goes wrong, I'll be right there. Anyway, was very busy doing homework for the kids. Nowadays, as competitive as everything is, kids need an edge, so i do all homework for them. Anyway, busy day! 

lots of S today

Correct me IF I'm wrong, but it seems to me it would be a sacrilege to introduce a dime, quarter or half on your thread. I do not wish to engage in one-upmanship. You post what you've found. That's very humble. True, I have a few odds and ends (to the everlasting astonishment of those who believe I was born with a Rooster in my mouth) but none, to my recollection, were "found." To claim otherwise would be cheating. I enjoy your offerings, as is.  

There will never be one upmanship here. You should know that! Post whatever you like, whatever you can find. 

Check it out @Quintus Arrius, i almost got 5 dates in a row! I only needed a lowly 43S to get 5 in a row. In cards that's called a trifecta. So yeah, almost hit today's trifecta. Only needed one more. Oh well.
