The ultimate matched pair of 56 flyers should always flock together

One MS and one PR, both S-3's - you really can't pick two others and match them any closer

    Nice pair of coins. I always dreamed of having one of these when I was young and looking at Red Book numbers.

    I wouldn't kick this one out of bed (I think it is Stewart's coin), but the photos at least make the coin look a little different:

    They are both Mint State.

    If the grade does not fit, you must resubmit.

    That other coin is not Stewart's. His looks like your two.

    I know you know these two coins very well, but I was under the impression that PCGS wouldn't consider changing the designation on the second one, and that you and Tom both had tried to get them to change their minds.

    My apologies to Stewart then. I thought his was posted on Coinfacts, and the only other one in MS66 is this one, which is not his, nor is it an S-3:
