Hi Doc,
My problem started on Saturday when I received a box in the mail. It was a sealed box from the Mint with 10 1965 SMS sets in it. I new I could not have it for 10 minutes without opening it.
But Saturday was a very busy day and did not return home until late and was too tired to open it. I would wait until Sunday and open it. Alas Sunday came and I had to work from 6-noon and then the day roared by with mundane things to do and no opportunity to open the box.
All day Saturday and Sunday all I could think of doing is opening the box.
The serious symptom began when I fell asleep on Sunday evening. About 3:00 in the morning I woke up abruptly and in fear. I dreamed that I opened the box and found no Mint white envelopes and no Mint sealed plastic, only a box full of coins banging and clanging around. I immediately went to eBay and email that scoundrel that I bought them from and when I opened the auction page it said "no longer a registered user". That is when I woke up.
Doc, tell me, am I ok, Will I make it.
Please help. What is my problem Doc!!! What should I do!

No, No, No I really am a doctor (well, a surgeon, if you consider that a doctor) and you must NOT, I repeat NOT open the box. It would be a psychologic catastrophe if you opened the box and your dream and reality were allowed to collide. You would be most certainly in a catatonic state for years to come. Your only real option is to send the box to me so that I can open it for you under direct MEDICAL supervision. I will charge you a very nominal fee for this service, but you must do it immediately. I repeat, DO NOT HESITATE....
"To cut is to cure"
"Don't let the skin stand between you and the diagnosis"
"Heal with steel"
"Eat when you can, sleep when you can, and don't f*** with the pancreas"
Maybe you could send the box to mgoodm3 who could work on his coin x-ray skills.
I opened it.
I feel much better now
I think I can sleep peacefully tonight.
Or maybe it is the xanax.
Sorry Russ--no cameo Kennedy's: all are nice looking though. (never seen a cameo in hand though just a lot of pics.)
Other than cameos, is it true they would be only worth grading if MS67+ (Profit wise that is)
I will look them over again another day.
Any other things to look out for in this series?

Internests know everything and do nothing.
Surgeons know nothing and do everything.
Psychiatrists know nothing and do nothing.
Pathologists know everything and do everything, but it's too late.
Just remember, people are dying to see me.

I have a brother who was certified. They even have him a nice white jacket to wear.

I've got one too the man in the dr.'s coat says it's a "love mejacket" makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. (at least untill those voices tell me to do things)
The old nurse said to the new nurse, "I can tell what kind of doctor someone is when they get into an elevator." And the new nurse said, "How can you do that?"
The old nurse said, "The internists will use their hands to hold open the elevator door, because they don't care if they lose their hands, they never have to use them. The surgeons will hold open the elevator door with their foot, because they just use their hands. The orthopedic surgeons, however, use their heads."
I am somewhat incriminating myself, since I am in an internist.
at least some of the time. This would seem to be one of those times that a quick essemessectomy
would not be contraindicated.

Where can I order one of those? I've looked all over the mint website and I don't see it!

That is funny

It was purchased from ebay from 'webbulator' He had a number of sealed sets in original sealed Mint boxes.
