[QUOTE="somecoinguy, post: 7894539, member: 124203"]So, ever since I learned that the mint sometimes sold dies, I have wanted one! Well... yesterday at my LCS I noticed they had one for sale so I grabbed it! Anyway... this was from the Philadelphia mint and it is accompanied by a Massachusetts state quarter, one of the first actual coins struck with this die! It just feels like such a great piece to have as a coin collector! I am super excited to add it to my collection! While it would have been cool if it was from a state that I have a connection to, and I do wish that they did not grind off the design, I understand why they do it, and it is still just super exciting to own! It's the small things that just make me happy :D [ATTACH=full]1362704[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1362705[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1362706[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
