[QUOTE="Stork, post: 3719059, member: 71642"]It is the ONLY coin I have ever spent that kind of money on. I had a set of bullion coins I was getting rid of which funded it. In fact I swapped sovereigns for the new purchase above too. Nowadays I'd rather have interesting coins, though I'm sure most people would not consider early 1900s coins worthy. Shoot it could have funded some nice Japanese coins too...or ancients, or whatever. That said, I'd rather collect a visually appealing (to me) set, that is limited enough in scope I can finish it before I retire. What can I say, it's an illness, hoarding and OC traits don't help ;). Hoarding in the dragon sense is what I mean, I'm a poor dragon as I have fewer ounces, but cooler coins. A real dragon would have sold her husband's car instead.[ATTACH=full]996846[/ATTACH] Stupid prong is just about hiding the dang fasces though. The auction photos of it were taken before slabbing and were much nicer. Plus I don't have the art of 'glamour shooting' down. It's very prooflike.[/QUOTE]
