Reunited with an old friend...

As some of you know I reluctantly sold my PCGS Registry 50 piece early commemorative set earlier this year. I often wonder where it went or if it was split up. On a recent browse on ebay I found one of my old commems! One of my favorites too. Its my old Wisconsin half that has a beautiful and unique toning on the obverse. It now has a new cert number and is CACed. I'm guessing someone tried the crackout game and it came back the same grade. It was good enough for a new CAC, though. Now I own one of my old commems, again. I'm pretty happy. Got a decent buy it now price too. Just though i'd share. here's a photo of the coin I had taken when I originally owned it:

Born and raised in Wisconsin - love that piece! I can see why you bought it back. (wish I had seen it on the 'bay)

Super-nice! Glad you are able to own it again.

This was a holed Wisconsin that I missed on ebay. Wish I had another chance at it.

Very cool. And that's a good looking example of an issue that's usually not.
Glad that you and your old friend are together once again.
Very attractive piece.

Pretty darn nice. It’s easy to welcome back an old friend.
I don't know that I've seen colors like that before-they are stunning!
Sorry, I never liked the design. I think it is dull and uninspiring. But I agree that's a handsome specimen.
Pretty cool to meet up again.

Would you care to share why you sold it ,then bought it back at the same grade? (albeit with a bean) Sellers remorse? Was it a net loss? Or are you flipping it again or keeping it? Just curious.

You seem happy to have your old friend back.... Since I do not sell coins, I do not have to experience the remorse of parting with my coins....Once in a while, I find one that I had forgotten about.. and it is like acquiring it all over again...
Cheers, RickO
That's great that you found it again! I once sold a 1798 bust dollar... I wish I could get that particular one back. :'(
