73 is a pretty nice number! Congrats!
Obviously, you don't have the true OCD: [IMG]
I would only spend ~$1 per war nickel, making your purchase out to be $80. 35% is too impure for my liking.
Best show ever.
If the antique dealer was a nice, helpful, understanding person, then I'd tell him/her that the coin is worth more than he/she is charging. They...
