Thread still here... and only one bammed?
I didn't see that, Who got bammed?
Scroll up, time stamp on the last message was about: January 27, 2020 11:20AM in this thread; but may have been something somewhere else.
I think it might have been due to comments on the Kobe Bryant thread...
Wow, 151 and climbing...
I noticed that thread is completely gone so it may be best to say no more on my part.
I'm glad to see this still going, I was reading a thread from early last decade when you mentioned this, it was a bad one where half a dozen users got bammed because of it.
Interesting....

Ya I read the updated rules, I have to believe it was related to that subject, it could have addressed a couple of threads including this one.
I did everything I could to keep it friendly and checked my mailbox and didn't see anything so I guess I'm okay for now.

I enjoy getting coins like this back from PCGS...it makes my day (I got this back years ago when I sent a bunch in)

@Texast . That is a great looking Franklin. Did it get the cameo designation? Not that it matters too much, just curious.
What part of Texas are you in? I'm in Spring.

Yes it did, I was not sure because of how frosting on the reverse was stronger around the lettering making the device's look lighter. It was adequate everywhere just super on the eagle and lettering. (PR68)
I'm down in Freeport, do you sell on eBay? I bought a Morgan from Spring about 3 weeks ago.

Well it looks like the thread has run it's course, it has been interesting. I want to thank everyone who participated.
It not a coin, it's a nice medal that I have two of, I only need one, I would rather have one of the Morgan or ASE overstrikes though. How about a trade @dcarr ? Anyone?

Yes, but I haven't sold anything recently. Freeport, brings back some good childhood memories, my dad used to take me and my two brothers offshore fishing there. I remember our '24 boat buzzing past all the '50 footers in the intracoastal canal but, once we got outside the jetties they would cruise right past breaking the waves as we were tossed around like a cheap salad.
We would go 40 to 50 miles off while they I'm sure went all the way to the continental shelf.

I got it from @dcarr - Moonlight Mint It is the 2006 Denver Mint Centennial Commemorative. I have no idea how much it's worth. I think it was a 50 or 100 limit issue.
At the time of release it got big coverage from Coin World and other publications. I'm not sure if it was the Proof or Satin finish. Dan would be able to tell. Dan if you are available would tell me which it is please.

You have a problem, the token you bought, the pictures must have been ripped from someone. He had pictures of TWO DIFERENT Tokens.
One is the Satin Finish and the other is the proof!
The way you tell is to look at the bars, on one there is two crossbars, one top one bottom, on the other there is a top bar then what looks like the block wall at the bottom making it a window instead of a door! looking device.
One has an issue of 50 and the other was either 100 or 200, I'm not sure which has which. You may want to contact the dealer and check out moonlight mints web page..
Bet your glad I looked at that...
Also, it appears it is Silver, which is good, it should be worth more, mine are Brass, or are mine GOLD, I know he had a mix up with some planchets or something, now I'm really confused...🥴

Ok, the Silver Proof Like has an issue of 150, the Window pane on the window side is polished, on the Silver Satin Finish the window pane is Satin, it has an issue of 50
There are some slight difference as the PL had TWO issuances, First issue of 100 has satin-finish tympanum background.
The second issue of 50 has slightly polished tympanum background.
The difference between the two is very subtle. (Tympanum is the background below the top of the Arch above the window.)
The Brass Proof-like had 200 produced.
