So where's Paddy's pic? Saw Bill (Penney Guy) but not the famous Irish Rover......
Well, the label has been created. I should see some movement on these in the next couple of days.........
Amen brother........
Nice to know I wasn't the only one burnt that year.........:)
My gut says polished.
They were sold separately.........brown box Ikes (proofs) and white envelope (unc.) I believe. They were also silver clad. If I'm incorrect...
Tell us what you really think Frank.........[ATTACH]
If you insert the scissor correctly you won't harm the box.......
Spectacular coup 'Jester.......
In all of my years at UPS I never saw a girl like that..........
Heck, I can get a '69-'70 straight from the mint. Why do I need some piece of plastic to tell me what I have?
LOL Dave. I was going to start a thread on the same subject. You can't get the blasted flaps up. You have to wedge a scissor in and gradually...
I hope you had both hands on the wheel when you snapped that pic. :) Sweet coin.
That's one I need but have been unable to justify the asking price. Still, one will come in at the right price one day.
Oh blast it Tom. There ya go making me explain myself. :) I think that most traditional types don't want to spend the extra money to buy them....
Right Dave.........I defer to your superior knowledge. :)
For the right collector/registry set owner they do. For the traditional collector, they don't.
I think it means that yours is a re-strike. In the link I gave you earlier it mentions that the older coins contained the edge inscription.........

I have on occasion picked up a low mintage (<10,000) commem for less than $100. Just gotta keep your eyes open.
