Dealer calls,says he has a collector who needs to sell fast. Seller is willing to sell below graysheet price.
Dealer says he wants to move the coins fast. One coin I needed for my gsa set,80cc/78 gsa, the other I allready had two of 91cc gsa, (one a spitting eagle). Since the price was right I decided to take the 91cc. Get the coins, take a close look at the 91cc only to discover that it is a spitting eagle!There is a coin God in heaven. image

    Can you explain to me why the Washington Redskins logo has a picture of an Indian in a headress with feathers encircled by a gold ring which also has feathers on it?

    That extra set of feathers has always bothered me.

    Good question, no I cannot. I used to watch them at summer traning camp at Dickison colledge, Carlisle Pa.
