Discussing prices in a public forum is usually a bad idea. Oh... too late LOL

 

Why?

 

I don't mind. I think it is a S-90.

 

Wow! That's great.

 

Heck....we never kiss and tell.

 

Ok not coin related but something new again. Prettier than any coin too but Could end up seriously interfering with my coin buying.

 

This arrived today.

 

Robec's got a Wonderfule looking group of Roosies, this one went to a GREAT home!!!

Been wanting one of these for quite some time.......

Beautiful coin Green! That thing is just dripping with luster.

 

A friend of mine in Arkansas - a Civil War buff - would gladly kill for that coin.

 

Thanks guys......I'm really quite surprised as I bought the coin 'unseen' from a dealer friend.
