Wonderful!! Are you considering taking another shot with each coin flipped over to see the reverses?
What a wonderfully informative first post here! I've read many of your posts on Forvm (but have very rarely dared to post there myself). Welcome...
Congratulations on a wonderful acquisition!! I can certainly understand why you want to post it early (and Goldberg usually takes ages to ship, so...

Here's mine, which I purchased at NYINC this year: [IMG]
My overall auction was great. I too had consigned a group of duplicates which no longer fit. Some did exceptionally well, some I intentionally...
