[QUOTE="tradernick, post: 15580, member: 648"]Wow that's a beautiful coin, I completely understand your remorse. Let me share my story. This is the first thing that came to mind when I saw the words "Sellers Remorse". Last year I had a token of some kind...I don't know exactly precisely where or when it was made, but it was VERY cool. It was about the size of a half dollar and had a calender of sorts on the reverse. The surface of the reverse spun around and markings on it (days and numerical dates)pointed to the 12 months which were on the rim. You'd adjust the reverse just so and voila, a calender for the month. I may have the hard info backwards here but you get the idea. Anyway this was just a cool little gadget/token/coin/thingie. I had never seen anything like it in all my years. It came in a pile of stuff so I didn't really have any money in it. I don't think it was very valuable...just an interesting little trinket. One day upon returning from a coin show one of my workers informed me that he'd sold it to a customer....for $3. I was crushed. $3?!? I guess it's my fault for leaving it in one of the display cabinets...but I sure miss it and know that I probably will never see another one. Nick[/QUOTE]
