Hello everyone....

All of my days are kind of meshing together at the moment. The last three weeks feel like “Ground Hogs Day” to me. Between the hospital and work it’s been one big mess.

On a different note....

Several weeks back one of our community members posted a coin that I decided was a must have for my collection. To be honest she’s posted more then one must have coins, but I haven’t been able to track them all down. Yet, that is.....

She posts high quality content and has a unique flair in her writing. I’m glad to call her a friend, that person is our very own @kerrislravenhill. If you don’t know of her I suggest you check out her posts for some very interesting reads.

So the coin in question today is a 2004 Canadian commemorative one dollar proof coin. And after you see this baby you’ll know immediately why it was a must have.
