    I wonder how much people would pay for that very coin in PCGS plastic with accompanying documentation?

    Tens of thousands?


    First Strike is a sham, plain and simple.

    don't forget the progression strikes!

    I want to see those at a show. I hope they show them.

    Wasn't one of our own there for that initial striking? and I think he posted his fingers (or someone's fingers) wrapped around one.

    The first coin struck plus a set of progress strikes and original documentation will be going to the Smithsonian NNC. This is thanks to Director Moy who is doing what he can to reverse decades of neglect.

    A lot of people rag on him, but forget that in many respects his hands are tied.
