Went on vacation last week and put the mail on hold and then came home today to find 6 coin packages awaiting me!!!

Great day for my collection - four packages with raw coins taking their place in the staging line for review and possible submissions if their quality is good.

The fifth package contained a 1998 P Roosevelt dime - MS 68 FT - from Datentype. Replaces an MS 67 FT coin in my collection - so a nice upgrade to the set.

The last package was the one I have been waiting on from Teletrade. My first addition to my "Busted" my Budget on Half Dimes collection of Capped Bust Half Dimes. This coin was more than I really wanted to spend, but now that I have it in hand it was worth every penny! I can't believe the retained luster in this coin. Took a few pictures this evening and I'll share the reverse of this coin.

Amazing how you can feel so differently about some coins. I think Roosevelt dimes in MS 64 are just plain ugly, but yet this coin I perceive to be gorgeous...

Have a great evening! I know I am!!!!

Todd
