    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
