Hi Rick,

 

I can always dream !

 

Actually I always request a book for my numismatic library from my wife.

 

This year I gave her a few hints for Michael Demling's " New Jersey Coppers - A Comprehensive Analysis and Attribution Guide".

 

Little stuff like " I see there is a great book on New Jersey Coppers authored by Demling, I'd really like to add this one to my library"

 

Merry Christmas ,

 

Rich

Very cleaver Rich! Now if only my wife could give me all those coins! I'd even give em all up for the Stella! Oh well, that's OK, my wife is a keeper regardless of all the stuff my true love could give me. Merry Christmas all.

Dave - Glad you liked that one, and thanks to everybody for the nice comments.

 

To close the loop, my wife's 1st Christmas coin book gift was many years ago, Rick Snow's "Flying Eagle & Indian Cents". This 1992 book won the numismatic specialty book of the year award, & she even got Rick to autograph it, I think I received it in Christmas 93 , definitely no later than 94.

 

In the book Rick wrote extensively of the 1837 Feuchtwanger token , and only last year, almost 20 years later , I purchased the post's pictured token at the 2012 Balt March show.

 

So maybe one day soon, (hopefully way before 20 years from now), I will have done my homework and when the "right" NJ Copper comes around I'll know it and add it to my collection.

 

Merry Christmas,

 

Rich
