No waiting room. Get'em while ya can....(devil)

 

I agree with the silver medal, those flag wings, but i just considered it a freebie in the package.

 

Agree about the medal. I'm not too keen on the HR coins produced by the mint. I bought the 2009 and wound up selling it. @jeffB. When were you crowned as a mod?

 

Gotta agree on the eagle, Liberty has a 70's look and the eagle has a comb over!
That said, that's a beautiful chunk of gold, plus it's .999, 250 years and low mintage of 15k, I'm thinking it's a good buy, just too much for me.

 

Misspoke here and I cant edit, should read:

Well I said no but maybe after Mike (Mezack) and Rick (Tomaska) tell me how rare they are I will consider it(not).

 

I bought the 1804 gold one and it's now off for grading, so I blew my budget on that one. I think it was BOM #3

 

For awhile i was checking out the PR70 graded version but ultimately went with a larger 1907, i wish they would have made the coin bigger though.

 

I know a railroad guy. He'll put it on the tracks for you. Make it much bigger.

 

That's funny, when I was a youngster I used to do that quite often, when I became an old man I found out it's illegal to do. Funny how many laws I used to break and not even know it!
