LOLOLOL. Well... I get letters from a former Treasurer of the United States, turned con artist.
She's 90 or 91. I hope it's just failing faculties. I'd hate to think that a former Treasurer of the U.S. would knowingly be involved in some...
Got this in the mail. Can't decide whether I'm more sad or angry about it. The unfortunate thing is that people DO fall for this kind of...
Thanks for all this info. I see. Maybe the signature in the back is hand signed and that's why it was slabbed?
1. Yes, but not in the PCGS holder of course. 2. Yes, offered for $25 before S&H by Golden Eagle Coins. Link provided in Post #3.

I agree that American Mint has some VERY NICE educational pieces. They also have some very well struck pieces with extremely detailed designs....
That's a very good price for a Matron Head. (I think that's a Matron Head. Always get confused between that and a Coronet Head.)
While it makes perfect sense, I don't know why that never occurred to me before. This is one of those statements on CoinTalk I'll forever remember.
I'd probably have to look up about the rarities and varieties, but I'd keep the 1926 bold "GOD" one, just for the story behind it.
No worries about "alternate side of street" parking! Lucky you. Or even trying to find a parking spot. Or the garag parking fees in midtown!!!
Steve, I almost did the same thing! But luckily, someone here at CoinTalk (it may have been beardigger) told me to first check the scale I have....
