    Nice pick up. The '01 is a nice one. Did you find it or buy it?

    So overall $2? Not bad. If it truly is an XF-45, it is worth quite a bit more than that.

    See this site http://www.indiancent.com/index.php for some free information on grading IHC's from Rick Snow. Then check out the http://www.indiancent.com/articles.php page. This contains a PDF on grading IHC's. Good luck and enjoy!

    I love IHC's and I hope I am around long enough to see you start collecting them in this grade below. :) I have two sets going - a high grade and a dansco album that is currently from ag/g to XF/au in some cases.
