I prefer purples, blues, and reds, but that one is put together very nicely. Is that one being sold by Heritage?   01-20-2009, 10:11 AM   #5 (permalink) borgovan Supporter**   Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Michigan Posts: 1,825 Insane! I'll bet it's a bad picture, too. The toning is probably out-of-this world.   01-20-2009, 10:12 AM   #6 (permalink) Treashunt The Other Frank     Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: New York Posts: 17,724 nice, go for it! __________________ The Other Frank "Buy The Book Before The Coin!"

It is currently in the February Long Beach Sale from Heritage. I have an idea of how much it will sell for. How much do you guys think it will realize?   01-20-2009, 05:14 PM   #12 (permalink) Magman U.S. Money Collector     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Phoenix, AZ Posts: 3,193 My Mood: No idea! lol However, I do know that you should check out my "won this from ebay" thread in the US section   01-21-2009, 09:03 AM   #13 (permalink) bhp3rd Die varieties, Gems     Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: "Way down younder in the land of cotton" Posts: 2,071 My Mood: Doctor, doctor tell me the news, Something about it says "I little bit to nice to be real" don't get me wrong it a beaut but thats the first thought I had.
