Afternoon everyone….
It’s been a windy and rainy two days here in the northeast. Which is really putting a damper on me accomplishing the necessary work on a job site.
So instead of wasting time doing nothing. I decided to take a trip over to my private security place. I brought back the two boxes that I currently had to organize, log and label.
While I was there, I decided to grab four boxes this time. Why? Because we are supposed to get rain four straight days next week starting Tuesday. Which will give me time to go through these boxes.
Today I have a 1998 Portuguese 1000 Escudos silver coin.

Wow! Portuguese history through their coins are wonderful!
We are familiar with U.S., UK, Canadian, and Australian coins. The Portuguese and Dutch coins are wonderful additions.
