WTG! The 7070 is a blast. Glad they brought 'em back. Nice work so far.
Yep- it was in the mailbox. Opening shall be posted overnight. Yesterday I had a $2300 coin showing as being delivered in the tracking info....
Oh, hey... interesting. I totally overlooked that.
Numismatic value- no, not really - not for the restrikes- though they're worth a modest premium over spot ("melt") price. I do like these. My...
Yep! Sure looks like it to me! ~90-ish% o/c plus an elliptical clip! Groovy!

Wait... what? You're gonna tease us like that? Just post a picture of the mailer and leave us in suspense? LOL Nothing here just yet (I'm the...
Looking forward to seein' what you got! I do not recall what my first ancient was. That was so long ago, I must have gotten it from...
This. ;)
