[QUOTE="Bonedigger, post: 136694, member: 4367"]Troll - I've got no plans on selling the coin now. Probably won't. Zap - It was just one of the coins I needed to add to my date set.

Possibly the first coin struck from the die marraige, since all others are ID'd with cracks. Charlie - LOL, if they want one I guess I'll come up with something. No word on that yet :D Pretty boring stuff to those who don't collect BHs as my wife asked me if it was made of gold? Probably because of the way I was carrying on, LOL. :D Take Care B[/QUOTE]
