<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 3078413, member: 92655"]The favorite coin that I own would be a 1911 St Gaudens double eagle. The year 1911 was the inaugural year for the greatest spectacle in racing, the Indy 500 which was won by Ray Harroun in his Marmon Wasp..... That double eagle would have purchased somewhere in the neighborhood of 600 gallons of gas. Probably enough to keep Ray's tank filled to win the event and have enough left over to drive home.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]774768[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
