[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2207614, member: 56859"]:D I'm going with J[S]eff Goldblum[/S] fly. The critter's abdomen is too short to be a bee. Although, if a bee's abdomen is flexed, when viewed from above it would appear shortened... Hmm. There is one in acsearch which [URL='http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2371061']more clearly resembles a bee[/URL] and is described as such. The rest look like flies; some are called bees and some are called flies-- small sample size though. BTW, Heritage sold your coin between the two CNG sales. The Heritage listing notes that it is "from the Cameron Morgan collection". Maybe it's similar to me calling my coins "TIF collection" (i.e., just a vanity thing); maybe he's someone I should know but don't.[/QUOTE]
