Jewish-themed smashed pennies

[scarlettina]

DO, whom I met at the ANA show, asked me if I'd post pictures of my collection of Jewish-themed elongated coins. They're relatively hard to find and I always snatch them up when I find them. Anyway, no point in only one person seeing them, so I thought I'd post a link to the photo-set so that anyone interested might get to see them, too.

I try not to think too hard about my pressed-penny collection -- it's one of those things that I indulge when on trips and such, but try to minimize at home, because otherwise I think I would be completely obsessed. But I must admit, you're a bit of a bad influence. ;) Every time you post about them, I want to go get mine out and look them over.

Further, I joined the penny-collector website, and discovered that a local restaurant I've been curious about has a penny press! So I'm, uh, considering dragging the spouse over there... partly for pancakes, but mostly for pennies.

Hee heh heh. First one's free, kid. :-)

Just discovered PennyCollector.com, did you? Great resource. Have you discovered The Elongated Collectors (http://www.tecnews.org) yet? Four newsletters a year plus anywhere from 8-12 free coins, too.

Just call me . . . pusher. ::grin::

Wow. Cool! Thanks for the link

Yeah, it's dangerous. ;)

If you decide to join the club, be sure to put my name on the application as the one who referred you. :-)

Will do!

(And I probably will join. My birthday's coming up and it seems like a nice treat. -_^)
