[QUOTE="MsMolly, post: 7698351, member: 121019"]IT'S OPEN! Before you ask... - Ownership belongs to my spouse, who gave the green light to open. - We decided that, despite the opportunity to sell the unopened bag, the 2 men who started all of this (the $50 bet), would have much rather enjoyed a treasure hunt and the love of a new hobby. - I spent about 6 weeks researching and "practicing" prior to even posting here (I needed expert insight before I pulled the plug :)). I have a microscope, gloves, coin flips, and Safelips. - I am numbering all coins as I go along and taking pics/notes of any tiny thing that looks odd. There are so many varieties... I'm afraid I might miss anything that isn't obvious doubling (thank you Mr. Wexler - you've been my best resource). - I am waaaay deep in the Kool-Aid! This is so much fun! I'm posting some pics of the grand opening bag here. I will start new threads for specific coin questions. Thank you in advance - this would be an insane undertaking without experts to help![/QUOTE]
