Congratulations. The D fell off, though. :-)
what is being called "cleaned" (scratches) by other posters, could very well be die polish. It's tough to tell from the pics. My biggest concern...
The Mint site has the 1,000 coin P.R. bags listed as sold out already
I'll give you AG, G, G, all potentially cleaned, and I won't comment on authenticity.
I had 2 of the Credit Suisse 1-gram gold bars that I bought 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately, I sold them 2 weeks ago to another dealer who was interested.

I don't usually hop on the modern-mint flip-it bandwagon, but even I broke down and bought a load of P.R. quarters when I heard the mintage was...
Well, I'd say there's a good chance that it's AU, not BU...but it's hard to say from those pics. Either way, like you said, it's not like you're...
Congratulations! The Jefferson nickel series is fun to assemble, and can be mostly done by searching pocket change. As for what to do, just look...
The Capital holder for a 21st Century type set is going to be the size of a basketball court.

The auction even says it's AT.
