Two points off for spelling Mike. :) Sorry all, in the future I'll keep such opinions to myself.....
Holiday season. X-mas really disturbes me. Not the proper place to make such an opinion but I've a problem with the semantics. Post Christmas...
Enjoyed reading your post Charmy. Happy for your successfully outing.....:D
Interesting. What are the chances of me finding one these so called "experimentals" in circulation?
If you go by these folks you didn't do too badly.... http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/prices/moddlr/pricesgd.shtml I've seen 'em for much less...
Indeed I do believe that Lehigh is a "closet" modern collector (LOL). I've got a Dansco of PDS and I also collect the cost prohibitive rolls...

Those scratches are on the coin and not the holder?
Probably not a heck of a lot. And those SMS's that Larry mentioned? You can still pick those up for reasonable prices....
Gotta bump this and try to get some "goldy" experts in here. Great post Snaz.....

Separate names with a comma.
