    Yes, you did. It was a lot of fun. Rick was great and I thoroughly enjoyed getting to meet Dave Vagi! (And I’m never selling it).

    So I gotta know: Did you just randomly walk in off the street one day into the Pawn Shop or was it really all planned and rehearsed?

    There was no rehearsal, the first time Rick and I met is what you see on video. Let’s just say I didn’t just happen to be in Vegas carrying around an EID MAR (nor was Dave Vagi loitering around the pawn shop hoping an interesting ancient would show up).

    What a beautiful coin!
    Was the negotiating for real? In other words, if you had agreed on a price, would the deal have actually gone through?

    My daughter likes Pawn Stars, and found this very cool.

    I found the way you left the shop, calmly putting your 150 000$ coin in your breast pocket before hitting the street rather cool. Although I though «don’t go losing that sweetheart now!»

    I've said this before but I'm glad Rick is a cheapskate who clearly didn't appreciate what he had on his table! The coin deserves a far better price than he offered.
