    OMFG! What happened?!:yawn: :eek: :confused:

    Oh...flood, I cant believe a flood would do that much damge to a proof set. That just proves that the mint holders are not that protected.

    Considering that silver is 10X face, that thing should sell for at least $8.56. Despite that, I promise that I will not bid on it. It is all yours!

    It is worth $0.91. With shipping it will cost you $2.85. If you're in the mood, I've got some land in Florida for ya. You will just need to drain some water and tame a couple of aligators.

    It's only out of respect for you that I'm not bidding on that bad boy.

    I want that nickel so bad I can taste it. I see it's damaged, but there's still some sweet toning to be had there.
