The Mysterious and Enigmatic Journey of My Quest to Achieve and Find The Last Piece of The Puzzle

More specifically, finding a 1937 D Boone Centennial. And I probably paid too much for it, but these danged things don't come to auction all that often. After all, with a mintage of 2506 issued it is exceedingly elusive. Top that with the auction house having it listed with mintage of 9810 I wound up in an energetic dog fight with another bidder at the end. But it's mine, all mine, and my date and mintmark collection for this series is complete. I originally set out to complete this set with no rules and any grade, but I found that most of the venues offering this series (auction) were passing them off at '65 and above, so that's what I strived for. It has been close to a two year junket and I'm done and on to another commem series. Arkansas? Texas? I dunno, maybe I'll just save my 'jing' and somewhere down the line I'll land a nice Hawaiian.......
