Morgannut2, if you will PM me I will make arrangments for the shipment of your prize and will heep praises on your coin investing guru status. BTW...when Morgannut2 submitted the 1895-S choice last year, he said it was his 2nd best choice, and he didn't want to reveal his top choice since he was still shopping for it! I hope he will share with us what his top pick was, so we can see if it performed as well as his 2nd choice....which still won!!!!
