<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 3456985, member: 76086"]If people catch onto this thread there will be hundreds of responses. We all have coins we would prefer to upgrade, but ultimately I suspect we all feel many are 'good enough'. I will post a few here, but will not attribute them, I feel if people find them of interest they can look them up:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]918988[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This one is rare enough that I likely wont see another one. Not that they do not otherwise exist in the sales catalogs, but they appear rarely enough that I cant always be there to spot another example to upgrade. And certainly not at the cost of this one! So, it is likely going to be 'good enough'.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]918995[/ATTACH] </p><p>For some reason I find chickens monumentally hilarious. This coin is not rare and I have seen others, but the theme is actually more rare than many think. This coin really isnt good enough, but it will do for now.
