[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 7919811, member: 13307"]Thank you! Like I said, they've been in a bin inside a tote for quite a while now - waiting for a day much like today when I have time to actually decide whether to keep or sell them. ([I]The good news being that I'm finally getting to the point where I have gotten rid of a LOT of stuff I don't care about, and I can start getting into stuff like this.[/I]) The Mount Cook was a close call, but due to the scratches on the obverse (probably the previous owner sliding the case over it) I decided against keeping it longer term. I've decided I will remain the owner of the following: 1974 New Zealand Day (love that flying egret, reminds me of another FM silver coin I have...somewhere...I know I've posted it here so I'll look it up) 1981 Royal Visit (definitely proof like in hand) 1983 Coinage (also proof like, plus it has more coins on it!) 1983 Royal Visit (just really gorgeous condition) 1984 Black Robin (another proof like, plus an interesting animal) 1986 Kakapo (have a feeling it would be proof like if I were to conserve it.) These all remind me of my trip to New Zealand a few years back. Those Kea parrots were no joke - we parked by the entrance to a tunnel coming out of Fjordland and they immediately started trying to dismantle my friends' fathers' car. Had to shoo them away![/QUOTE]
