I'm planning on venturing outside of Maine for some coin shows in New England, so I am reading my way through these older coin show reports for...
Whoa! Very cool.
Well I looked, and I can't find it in the mess I call an attic. I may have given it to Goodwill a few months ago, as I did a little purge. :(...
