    I wonder what grading company he used to determine that they were in "Good" condition? I would like to have seen them and what whey would grade at Now!

    Just think what an exciting find that would be today... That is the type of find that cache hunters dream of... Of course, when we dream of such things, they are usually gold coins... :D;) ...Well, dream big I say.... :) Cheers, RickO

    Must be the 125 years of compound interest that makes those silver half dollars dollars today!
