    If I was rich, I'd get into a bidding war with you for that Lex.

    Here you go. The topic coin is very nice, but your coin was a moose.

    I don't think I have ever seen so many heavily toned commems available at one time.

    No Dizzy, if you read the descriptions you will find that most of these pretty coins belong to Carey Porter, a well-known collector of color commems and type coins ... in bulk.

    I read Carey Porter and the Goblet of Toned Coins.

    The Cary Porter collection is amazing! Like Bruce Sher`s and Dr. Mike Cali`s collections, we were ooohing and aaahing when viewing it, like watching a fireworks display.
