So, I stopped at the 7-11 for coffee this morning and...

...walked out with this 88 year old guy.

    Nice find, it's the kinda thing that makes you smile.

    Wait a minute......... didn't Anna Nicole Smith do the same thing you did? Bumped into an 88 year old guy, and he went home with her? image
    My humble '63 mint registry set, not much, but it's mine!

    Yeah, but what ram did was an accident, and he only got a penny out of it. What Anna did was deliberate, and she was after the money.

    I found a 1922-P Lincoln wheat in change the other day with a boldly struck rev, but was told they were only minted in Denver in 1922... Go figure.imageimage

    All I got at 7-11 was a cup of coffee and a sandwich.

    1918 was a very good year

    I feel bad when I see something like this. There's a good chance this was part of someone's collection that was stolen unless you think this coin had been circulating since 1918.

    You notice how all the double eagles he has lined up are in PCGS or NGC slabs except that one on the far left. The one in the Coin World shell and the label all blacked over. Did you buy a double eagle is a fly-by-night graders slab? image
