The 1920 came up as a traditional auction on ebay about 3+ years ago and I paid quite a bit to bring it home. $360 if I remember right (shshshsh, that's a ton for that date) and for a while I second guessed myself thinking "what a sucker" and "who do I think I am blowing dough like that on a common date" you know, all the regular self doubt that goes along with any discretionary purchase.

I'm sure I'm not alone in this inner monolog debate. So, the money is long forgotten and I just love seeing this coin in my collection.
