    Earlier today I looked in that box from yesterday. Well not really as my eyes were closed. I just reached in, felt around and pulled out one coin. It was in a 2 x 2 flip a me this is what it is. A quarter of an ounce Gold Eagle.

    And look closely at this photo. It’s just as I purchased her. 1989, 1/4 Oz Hold Eagle in BU. And then theses the price I paid, $93.75. Wish I could buy them at that price today. I bought this at my LCS in Washington State and the dealer wrote BETTER DATE on it. I guess it is but I really don’t know.

    That’s a waste of money. Go buy a coin.

    Actually I’ve never bought a lottery ticket. I save my money and go to my LCS from time to time.:)
