Haven't posted a new "sailing ship" coin for a while.

 

It's been several years since I wrote about or posted any photos of my sailing ship coins purchases. I still add to the collection although it has also been years since I stopped maintain my "High Seas" ship coin collection in the Signature series.

In fact, it is hard to believe that the High Seas set is appx 10 years old since it won "Most Creative Signature Set"--it has even been a few years since they changed the names to Custom Sets. Okay, I'm starting to feel old now so I'll change the flow of this post.

Although I have not updated or added my new "ship coin" purchases to my signature set ( and even removed a few from the listing of the set-like most of the gold and US commem coins) I still buy coins with the theme I so love. Most often I leave them in their OGP/cases or buy a few pre-slabbed.

I have been getting many coins slabbed, but primarily they are my granddaughter's "Bear Coin" themed set, the final holes in my Bahamian and Canadian sets and a few classic barbers and SLQ's.

So although my posts have become infrequent, I still enjoy browsing fellow collector's journals, sets and still am on the hunt for the newest series that catches my whim.

A 1/2 oz gold Bermuda Triangle "triangular" coin with the Deliverance-a ship who met its end in the infamous, mysterious area.
