And i thought i was doing well with 2 (one in VG from B&amp;M, and one in Fine from Stacks). Congratulations!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>I guess like you, i felt there was something &quot;mystical&quot; about that date. And it is not only the scarcity of the coin that i am talking about.&nbsp;&nbsp; Please post a picture of your VF and XF pieces if you ever get a chance?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
