    Thats AWESOME!..Great photo Lucy B
    I'd rather have the uncirculated I think than the proof. I am not sure how many of each they will end up making but this is a keeper.

    Wasn't going to but, after these pictures, I just ordered 2 of the uncirculated versions. Two different backorder dates--10/20/05 on the site and 9/3/05 on my order receipt.
    Curmudgeon in waiting!

    Coin geek trivia:

    I just flipped through my '05 Redbook and couldn't find another commemorative coin with three (count 'em) dates on one side.

    Is this the first?

    Hey Lucy, great pics of a really nice MS beauty. You are right about the mint finally hitting one out of the park.
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Great photo Lucy, you should be working for PCGS! I agree with you the coin is a winner, with that classic obverse.

    I, too, love these coins. Great pictures, Lucy.

    Do you think there'll be a lot of MS69-MS70 coins in this bunch? What about the proofs? I got my proof yesterday and I just absolutely LOVE IT! I'd say it is a PR70, possibly PR69. I didn't order any MS coins, but now I am thinking that if there are any left I will.

    Just received the proofs -- awesome, tried to scan but it doesn't do the coin justice.

    I am sure PCGS will grade these but can they be sent in the Mint holders??

    I would be afraid to open them.
