So, anybody care to report on their Naismith HOF coins? Not a buyer but always curious about eye-appeal, quality, packaging, etc.
Nice try with a hammer and a punch. Ok, not really a nice try, kinda bad try. ;)

None for me but I see the Kid's Sets are on back order already - must have sold well. Maybe I'm nit-picking here but the coins benefit the Hall...
I've already got e-mails from NGC and PCGS who will happily grade them for me, too! ;)
Browsing the mint's web page, I found this interesting Composition: 90% Gold, 6% Silver, Balance Copper So it's not .9999 - did this have...
