I used to live just up the mountain from there (in Asheville), but never got to see the Bechtler mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rather primitive looking Bechtler coins are rare and sought after today.&nbsp; I was offered one by a friend a few years ago, but didn’t have the $4,500 asking price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
