  But at least with the 1913, we would at least have a 20% chance of it being the actual First Strike.

  Problem is, we wouldn't be able to flip it for three times purchase price for at least six months.
  
  Who wants to wait THAT long?

  I'd be scared that the Government would confiscate it.

  I don't count it as a real coin/collectible, so you couldn't have my share of what I spent at the mint

  I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
