Merry Christmas To All

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all C4OA Members!

Every time one Family Member asks me what I wish for Christmas, I want to scream out: A CARSON CITY COIN! Watching the last two postings, my kids would have to sell their houses to grant my wish!

I admire the Registry Sets and the Super Rarities, put please let's put some "CC" coins on the wish list. I can see Rusty Goe as Santa coming down the chimney and sprinkling some "good," some "fine," and of course some "very fine" "CC" presents into these stockings!

They don't demand that you hawk your wife and kids and they can start a child's interest on a road of total satisfaction in numismatics!

How do you do that? When I was young I couldn't imagine getting coins instead of toys or clothes. But today, the statehood quarter and presidential dollar issues give every one of us a reason every day to distribute these coins. Instead of dollar bills I get these new coinage issues at the bank and give them out. The faces the people make when they get one speak volumes! Maybe, just maybe, one of them will start collecting coins!

Great! Now us C4OA people are of course of the connoisseur "species" and that's well deserved!

Happy "CC" collecting in 2008!
