Picking up a coin like that is a great feeling. :)

But when you set standards it can be expensive.

Ah, Robert, no travel for me other than Baltimore/NYC axis as I must watch after my son sans assistance these days and mercifully not too many Vick pieces to go. BTW, I think mine is the Colin Adams specimen and like the '56 date in general. There was a proof of one of the types batting about for a while a couple of years ago - did you bag that one?
