    I know that coin well...I was high bidder on it until some one sniped me this evening. image

    Its a super VF 30 and it would have looked quite nice in my Dansco album.

    I really liked that 01-S. Expect to hold onto it for awhile as you just don't see them.

    I am very happy I got my XF45 a year ago. This is another date that just doesn't come available in VF-AU grades.

    Mike, I meant to put a smiley face after "collusion" on a previous thread. I was writing that with a big smile on my face.

    Now if I can just find a 93-O, 93-S, 96-S, 04-P and 08-P especially in XF45 I will be a happy kid.

    This series is crazy in VF-AU. One would think the tough coins are the 92-O, 92-S, 96-O, 96-S, 97-O, 97-S, 04-S, 13-P, 14-P and 15-P. Granted, they are a challenge but there are other dates that are even tougher to find. As the child actor Dicky Roberts would say; "It's Nucking Futs".
