.....the 1804 silver dollar CARDBOARD POSTER at Southeby's!!



I have been invited to bring one of my two posters to the auction site by StacksBowers! But neither one will be for sale!! LOL.



Feel free to have a picture taken of yourself next to the poster!! Or me!! Or both!! Or neither!!



I do not know where they will put the poster...it might be in the basement but who knows?



I am really excited to show this poster off. I really miss Ray Merena who was nice enough to let me take these home after Pogue won the 1804 silver dollar 14 years ago. ARGHHH 17 YEARS AGO!!!

    But the winning bidder might want to give you a 100 grand for those!

    Ah! The Childs' sale. I was there and bought some coins-I don't remember what though. I missed out on the 1802 dime which went one bid too high for me at the time. I did get to hold the 1804 silver dollar. A television crew showed up and asked me some questions and I was seen on TV. An everyman's collection(save for the rarieties as the 1804 dollar) as he got a lot of his coins from change.

    I was at the Child's Sale as well. The 1804 is a beast.
