I keep hearing about this currency, but as yet I haven't been able to aquire any.
I plan to start a collection as soon as I find some. I'll be watching the registry to see when they have the sets up and running. Wish me luck on my endeavor.

    "Moon Money" is a slang term indicating paying well above market value for a coin. "Wow!!! He paid moon money for that coin!!!"

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    My alternate definition of "moon money" is any $1000 bill in very high grade CU condition, graded and holdered, of course. I really want a $1000 bill but paying $4000+ just seems so "moon money"ish.

    Could a person reasonably hope to ever recover this type of expenditure?

    Here ya' go. FWIW IMO it should be worth somewhere in the $20,000 - $50,000 range. More than a few of us that track this field think this is a bogus sale...

    Wow now that's a pricey piece of paper currency. Makes my CU $1000 dream bills look like a bargain.

    It all sort of questions the "letter of authenticity" concept. Is there a good way to authenticate these letters and certificates of authenticity?

    Let the buyer beware, indeed.

    devious may well be the only one who understands my post.
    But I'll continue my quest of moon money.
