Just broke the tie I was in with CGMIII in the proof roosie with varieties registry! What a feeling.

Big congratulations on hitting the number one spot. I took another look at your registry. Some great coins there.

Congratulations! That's my old set up there in the No. 2 all time spot. I had a lot of fun collecting these "perfect" coins. It's really neat to see the whole set laid out together.

I had mo' better coins than Eric, but he had that fantastic 68 No. S cameo which kept me from hitting No. 1

He couldn't touch me on the regular proof set though. Just remember the No. S cameo is the difference between no 1 and no 2.

Good luck finishing the set!

I was at the Heritage auction when the 68 no s cameo was up for bidding. I thought the coin brought a lot of money until I realized the pop and difficulty of acquiring one.

That was the Stokely coin. I was bidding too. Eric wanted it more than I did. There were only six graded -- three cameo and three non-cameo. It is a very, very rare coin.
