    "The Early Bird" gets the good "Buy It Now's".
    My recent eBay "Buy It Now" for $3.79.

    Early to bed, early to rise means you don't check coin auctions on your third shift job.

    Thanks MW.
    You know, I would send it in and get it in a Genuine holder just because I believe it's authentic.

    Of course it's authentic, you have the Word of the Lord on that!

    Those gold Kennedy line warriors would probably agree with that.

    Unless there happens to be another early bird present.

    Then it becomes a tug-of-war.

    I actually may do this very thing with a love token, if I ever find a SUPER sweet pictorial (or maybe one on a $3 gold). Just to put it in my "Eclectic Box of 20" and make that even more eclectic.

    The early worm, however, gets eaten by the bird!

    Oh no you don't! This one was my idea, as evidenced by this CRO ad from September, 2011.

    To tell you the truth, Jeremy, I was rather surprised that nobody had already posted one. image

    Can one assume that Chalmers had the proverb in mind when the coin design was created? Must have.
