Secret Santa 2016

QuoteThe 2008 double tail one also has a cud in the top left of the 1.

I have never seen a double tail without the blob on the 1 (or vice versa). I have seen them with rabbit ears as well and 2008 rabbit ears without the double tail 1 blob.

QuoteVery nice work guys.. would love to see some pics when they are out !
I will post the images a bit later :ok:
@RG
Must be a pretty brave Santa to send YOU a 1964 penny :angel:

i think this one certainly makes the grade ... pun intended xxxx to my wonderful charming kind generous santa - if santa was in the same room i'd give santa the biggest bestest hug that i could:heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart: muster xxxx

so instead it's a cyber huggiee!!!

It's a great chicken and egg discussion, there's 3 combinations with the 2008 Number 1 & Tail cuds.

1. Number 1 Cud
2. Tail Cud
3. Number 1 Cud & Tail Cud

(Not going into the rabbit ears or spew roos in this discussion).

The thread below discusses them (unfortunately one of Steve's images isn't showing up any more ... which just has the Number 1 cud by itself). I might have one laying around and add it to the end of that thread for reference.

Here's part of that thread with some images from Nevol.

i think there has been a few angels kicking around with the secret santas this year
I too Kel was overjoyed with my gift and certainly shed a tear or two as I was made to feel so very special

yet again, it's another reason why I so dearly value my membership in this forum

there are some really genuinely kind souls here and I like that a lot xx
