[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 7958012, member: 19250"]That has a funny story! As a dealer friend Len had it in his inventory years ago at least 4 to 5 years. While working shows I would do attributions for the dealers . I actually asked Len to look at the coin. And I knew at first sight it was special. I told him that there was a lot more meat on the bone. He had it priced at 350. Len said the first 350 someone offers its theirs. Time passed one year then another until last fall. When I was able to purchase it. By that time the coins value had passed the 350 mark by a hundred or more. So I asked Len what he wanted for the coin. He remembered his quote to me years ago. He said Paddy I told you years ago ! Besides all your efforts to help out the dealers improve their profitability by doing attributions for them its yours for $350.! Wow as its a ms 64 I believe grey sheet bid is now at 450. But yeah it sat in Len's case for at least 4 years....and was available at least at a 100 or better shows durring that time.[/QUOTE]
