Wow! I know how it feels when you find something you have wanted for a long time. Congratulations!

 

Congrats on the checked off bucket list item. Truly satisfying!

Wish I could GTG, but I've got zero experience with that one. I am curious though.

 

Wow! That's a new one to me too! Never heard of it till right now, good for you! AU50

 

Not a neat round metal object. Please read my first post above.

 

Sweet pick Randy. ..cheers to making dreams come true.....

 

That was one coin/token/medal that caught my eye as a kid too. '65 Red Book?

 

No sir... Ten more years. 75 Redbook

 

Huh. As it turns out, one of my Redbooks is a 1975, too -- odd, I thought I'd just about fallen away from the hobby by then -- and it lists the prices as $250/400/800.

My 1965 RB lists it at $70/G, $100/F, $250/Unc. It's apparently appreciated since then more than most other coins.

Ah, if only I had a time machine and a shopping basket -- but then again, shopping for almost anything in 1965 with my 2019 salary would have been a treat.

 

With my luck, I'd have gotten a basket of 1950 D nickels! They were much more expensive than they are now. Of course around that time, I earned $1.25 an hour, so it would have been a very small basket.

 

Is it a Bolen copy from 1862'ish?

 

Grabbed the wrong book! My mistake.

 

If you ever decide to sell your collection, that’s the one to keep!

 

I saw one of these in 2006 at my first coin show. Neat coin

 

Can you get George Foreman to autograph it?

 

You mean the price has gone up since the 1970s Randy??? Haha!! Great coin, you deserve it!

 

Randy, I wanted to offer to store that for you. I don't get the humidity that you get to get to that coin. lol

 

How generous!! LOL!!!

 

Why thank you! Lol

 

Can you show us the label please.
