I don't doubt you guy's know what your talking about but i still think he got a decent price,most of the $5 libs are listed at $185 in VF according to the Red Book. And guy's i know the Red Book is high but still in the ballpark at least for that coin.BY the way bullion value for the gold content as of today would be just under $150$,which means he paid $ 50 for the collectable/numismatic value. Again not arguing with anyone just pointing out the positive points.[/QUOTE]
