I purchased it from Lance Tchor, the owner/founder of wings which is the equivalent to CAC but for world coins. The asking price was $575 and I felt great about talking him down a pretty large amount but the premium was still very strong. He seemed like a real stand up guy and it was a pleasure for him to take the time to chat with me. I believe this one had a show, cac, star, and the neon toning premium.

Just got home, sorry I left you guys hanging. Not sorry I won the point though. I still didn't take any tablet pics. So... who wants to post one??? John.
I have an end roll toner to post that relates to the two that have been posted earlier. I'll post it shortly.
I think I'll call this one early since the 1st poster got it right. I sold the coin for $275. The interesting story is that I bought this coin off a bad ebay photo for about $105. I was confident though since I found that the coin had sold in the mid $300s only a few months earlier using the photo that I posted here. For some reason the person reselling the coin listed it as an auction with a less than ideal photo and thus failed to realize the full price potential. So the lesson here is don't leave money on the table with a lackluster photo if you are running a no reserve auction!
