Hi guys, I normally hang out on the Darkside but I recently discovered a Lightside piece I really want. Hoping you guys can help.

Can anyone here provide more info on this type: ebay example

Millions for Contractors / Not one cent for the Widows -- Fuld 97/389 (I think?)

How much in UNC or are they available in UNC? other grades? and Where might I find a better example?! image

Thanks!

    Want to buy an auction catalog for the William Hesslein Sale (December 2, 1926). Thanks to all those who have helped us obtain the others!!!

    They should make these today, with Dick Cheney on the obverse!

    Does PCGS grade these and is there a Registry set for them.

    I think it would be a cool set. Looks like there are a lot of them.

    Dimeman:

    PCGS does not grade them but NGC does. You can look on eBay. Typically there are about 40 to 50 or so NGC graded CWTs up for auction at any point in time. You can also go here for a not terribly active message board about CWTs.

    I understand China is going to issue a coin honoring Bill Clinton for selling them the technology to enable them to shoot down our satellites. image
