I just emailed and called to tell them to hold this one for me. It was hard to pass when I see VF's and such going for 40+ on ebay. Need the phone number Andy?
You know, I was all set to buy it and then I realized that the piece was misgraded. NGC called it MS RB, but the reverse clearly indicates that it is MS Brown.

Very cool stuff and very interesting to say the least. I think I am going to assemble a set of MS Monitor tokens.
