Even though I could not find a value for it I decided to buy it because of its historical significance. I had the high bid until like 2 seconds before the end of the auction and someone snatched it from me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I hate that...anyone know where another of its type can be found or anything more about this coin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
