<p>[QUOTE="Gary R. Wilson, post: 3247006, member: 89935"]Well I was in for a surprise, a pleasant surprise last night. I am having an 'old friend' come home. I won a coin last night and went to the CNG archives to get more information on the type. When I came across a coin very much like the one I am getting it looked very familiar. I decided to check my former collection and lo and behold it was the same coin. I had purchased it the first time from CNG in 2006. Some collectors may not want a coin that they sold back in their collection but I'm welcoming it back to the family.
