    Well, this opens up all kinds of opportunity. I'm going to stop worrying about what the coin is or its grade, I'm just going to buy them by serial number!!! [I hope there aren't any million dollar coins with serial numbers that I need!]

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.

    Only thing to make it better is to have the date be 1881!

    The coin is nice looking too!

    Opening bid is twice the PCGS trends...see other thread(s) about paying extra for the holder.

    Is this already in the Doily "Registry" or is it a discovery piece?
    And a gold sticker appears to be in the works,

    Are you referring to the fact that many Asians consider the number 8 to be a lucky number?

    That is a pretty cool coin and great holder, and I learned what a radar serial number was. Winner is me.

    I check bills, but never thought of looking for special slab #'s. Maybe next trip to the sdb I'll look.

    I bought a common date AU55 Liberty gold $5 in a small ANACS slab that had the serial number of 666666. I didn't care all that much about the coin but I liked that serial number. As far as buying it, you could say that the devil made me do it. :o:D
