I’ve been collecting info on what has been available for sale on the collector market for about five years. If your guess of 2/3’s of the Luedtke’s number is correct that would translate into about 525 “officials” having been released. Seems high to me at first thought. I haven’t seen any Official celebration pieces dated after 1986, but there must be something out there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
