Slam Dunk ~ right ?? :( After 6 months of sending receipts of original purchase by the friend and 2 appraisals of current value by recognized numismatic appraisers, they are questioning whether the coin was actually originally in the package, as they did not see it, and anyway, they would only consider the original purchase price.
