    That really shows something going full circle...
    Issued coin....turns into hobo coins....hobo coins inspires the Mint...and they issue hobo coins :)

    I actually rather like the look of yours but I think it's hard to compare stamped coins vs hand carved ones maybe.
    Thanks, I had no idea these existed - where they issued by the Government, through the Mint, and are actual legal tender?
    I know a few friends of mine that invests in bullions but do it for the precious metal content gold/silver/platinum and treat them as any commodity investments.

    They are just .999 silver bullion coins. I bought a few of them, but quit when they caught on and got really expensive. If I could buy a collectible for a few bucks over an Eagle, I would just for fun.

    I just received an email from a good friend of mine in Russia telling me I have some creams and aftershave balms on the way. The funny thing is I didn't even ask for anything. He and I have been friends for years and he's sending:

    2x Tet-a-tet S/C tubes
    2x Phyto Expert Sensitive S/C tubes (fantastic cream)
    2x Arbat S/C tubes (never tried this cream)
    1x Znakhar S/C tube (excellent cream)
    2x Tet-a-tet A/S Balm tubes
    1x Modem S/C tube (never tried this cream)
    1x Nord-ost S/C tube (love this one)
    1x Breeze Fresh S/C tube (nice cooling sensation)
    2x Phyto Expert Sensitive A/S Balms
    2x Everest S/C tubes (love this cream)
    2x Everest A/S/EDC cream tubes (very cooling, smells beautiful)
    3x Svoboda A/S Balm tubes
    3x Mi'l'n'iy S/C tubes (In Russian Mi'l'n'iy means Soapy)

    We met about 25 years ago in Vladivostok when I was selling fur skins and we became very close friends He's also an avid wetshaver and he'd love to join here but unfortunately, he doesn't speak English. He's still a prince of a man! :)

    He uses only ONE kind of soap to shave with which is Arko and he has a Plissoft 26mm synthetic which I sent him as a gift. I also sent him a Junjie DE and he likes the Rapira blades. He's a furrier and his wife is a lab technician. They were here in Montreal last summer and my wife and I showed them a great time. My wife at first felt a bit awkward because she doesn't speak any Russian so when I was talking to them she had no clue to what we were saying. His wife speaks also nothing but Russian but you can feel the love and warmth from them!
