    Steve, I think your Phillip is worth every penny you spent on it. Of course, whether you like it now or not is another matter entirely! I wouldn't consider it a "mistake" price-wise. It's a fine coin with honest wear and no tooling.

    I, on the other hand, did indeed overpay for my CNG lot today. Am I happy with it? Yes! Will I still want it in 20-30 years time? Most likely. A "mistake" I can live with.
