<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4980584, member: 19463"]I do appreciate the number of people who thought we might like notice of the sale. I suppose it would be possible to look over the posts already up and see if you could find four threads on the subject but it is better to have extras than to miss out altogether. Personally I don't see all the to-do about the coin. You do realize it is the worst know example not currently residing in a museum (unless we find that the buyer was a museum). If it is in a museum, I hope they will decide to put it on display rather than hiding it in the back vault. I do hope we get to know the identity of the buyer. I suspect it was not a Coin Talk regular following our usual advice not to post new purchases before they safely arrive in the mail. How does one ship a coin in this bracket? I do hope it wears a mask. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
