<p>[QUOTE="samclemens3991, post: 26534897, member: 82181"][USER=104064]@KBBPLL[/USER] . I am afraid I am rather on the lazy side myself. As you say, I will know more when i have the coin in hand. On the plus side I contacted the VSS variety fellow and he has added the Flynn PDF you sent to his reference collection. I don't think he does "new" varieties or discoveries, but if it looks close in hand I will send it to him and let him do the hard work.</p><p> Weird side facts though. I never even planned on getting this coin. The bid a few hours before the auction closed was at $5 dollars and so I meant to place a $10 dollar bid so I would keep track of it. In over 30 years of bidding I have never made such a mistake but I entered and confirmed a bid of $100. The coin ended up selling for $95.</p><p> At first I was panicked and thought I should try and get it reversed. I then ran the analytics on the coin and rrealized it was basically worth the amount bid. (This was also on a holiday so there was no one to contact anyway.)</p><p> No matter how things shake out this much is true. I am building a 25 date year set so that spot is filled. This will be the 2nd "details" coin I have ever added to my collection. James</p><p>And thanks for all your feedback, you put a lot of effort into your responses.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
