  • That is crazy. Those things are only worth about a buck. And then only if you can find someone who wants the ugly thing.

    Add to that the mere fact that it was struck with him looking down.....heh heh
  • He was looking down because he also thought it was ugly :-)

    I thought buying an AU one for 20 cents out of a junk box was about the most it was worth!

    Does anyone have a new year's resolution to stop bashing Churchill crowns?

    Didn't think so!

    I think the only fair thing to do to end this Churchill-bashing is for us to remove them all from circulation - - either from your personal collections, junk boxes, or off eBay.

    My New Year's Resolution is to assist in this "retirement" process by offerring myself as the final resting place of all said coins.

    Please remit ALL your Churchills to me at once so that, when the end of 2004 rolls around, I will not have to make ANOTHER resolution to try and complete the job in '05! image

    Kudos so far to Syracusian for getting the ball rolling!! image

    WHO's NEXT??

    I will maintain a "Churchill Count" for all to see. Help us reach our '04 GOAL!!image

    I really feel left out here; I don't have on of those numismatic treasures. So I bought one from Jeremy's Charity Auction for $2. Now I feel complete.
