Clem,
I have a couple of coins that I value at over $45,000, and I'll let you have
them for $9650 each!
(Okay, sorry about, but I just had to get a joke in somehow).
I have never dealt with John, but I have purchased coins from, I was just in
the vault today looking at a gorgeous 12-Q Ct. he sold me several years ago.
At the time, the price was (to me) fair. Others said it was pricey, but I
didn't think so.....I should have brought it home to post....if I had known
this was going on I would have. Bill has always been solid with me in the
times I have dealt with him.
I just wanted to point that out.........That said, I'm really enjoying all
the banter. I hope it is meant as light hearted as it seems.
Peace,
Bijan
