[QUOTE="Romancollector, post: 7689644, member: 106319"]I don't typically post in this thread, but I thought why not give it a shot! Here's my latest coin. I've been looking for this type for a while and found it in Leu's web auction. I thought I was safe adding my bid in the last 5 seconds, but alas someone entered a bit in the last 2 seconds which shot my bid right up to my max....which is never fun.
