Yep, this is exactly how I feel at this moment. First, got word to see my crossover submission NGC coin actually got an upgrade! Than finding out my daughter didn't have to move out of your newly moved into apt. Because of the owner selling. She can remain there. Than, just moments ago, I beat a $100, "red light ticket" because of a mistake on the city's fault. Lol. Thank you! Because of this, can you guy's post a coin, with the digits "00"? That's what I had to pay, $00 Thanks

    I hope that the red light ticket “mistake“ was giving you one you didn’t deserve, which was subsequently remedied. It would be a shame if the “mistake” was letting you off the hook for one you earned.

    So far, the only thing that went wrong today was I couldn't find a '98 Close am variety in this box of modern proof cents. 1992-1998. Oh well, you can't have everything. Lol.

    Pictured below are all the 1998's but no variety.

    I don't have a double ought coin to post, all I would say is that if you were speeding and running a red light - you deserve the $100 fine. Sorry to be blunt but I have seen more than my share of crashes caused by people in a hurry.

    Sorry, but The ticket was for a "rolling STOP", turn on red. In which the video shows that I obviously did! They should give ME the $100, for inconveniencing me.

    He got a “bank error in your favor” monopoly card, not a “get out of jail free” card.
    @joeykoins may not be the criminal mastermind some of you are making him out to be. Or perhaps we’re all such huge dorks that he’s the first person on this board to ever beat a ticket (I would imagine we’ve actually got some pros at that on here).

    Every morning I go vertical it's a pretty good day! Some are better than others, and sometime there is some luck involved in the outcome.

    So what grade was the NGC crossover? and you received a full point upgrade sending it in the holder to our hosts?

    That is some really good coin picking. I has a few I thought were better, but never had that actually happen.

    I took it more as him feeling lucky to have a second chance and catch a little grace, and not as flaunting his “beating the system”...but that’s how I interpreted it.

    The NGC grade is in my OP. MS 64.
    That's just it. I wasn't concerned about NGC's grade at first. It was the variety I cared about and why I picked it to begin with. So after I lost the chance on the variety, that's where the stroke of luck came in. To my surprise, it came back the MS 65. LOL.
    Come to think of it, imagine my feelings if the coin did come back "missing initials "? Along with that jump in grade! Shhhh.

    Nope. Many times when a person is found not guilty it is legit. Not in your case though.

    I'm torn between greatly disliking traffic cameras and remembering my one ambulance ride when someone decided slowing down, but not stopping, was enough at a red light while I was biking through with a green...

    Yes, obviously did STOP! You think if the judge seen in the video that I was rolling, not stopping, she would have thrown it out?

    It's a question of language. He said the city made a mistake with the ticket and "The ticket was for a "rolling STOP", turn on red. In which the video shows that I obviously did!" That parses to him saying he did a rolling stop. A mistake on the city's part could be a technicality where some incorrect box was checked so even if he did, on the whole, what was described, the ticket is legally invalid.
