Roy,
I'll see you and raise the ante. Why doesn't someone do an exhibit
based on this theme. (The sooner I get commitments for these exhibit
cases, the sooner I can take the rest of the year off.)
And why limit it to three coins? There are so many possibilities.
Maybe everyone could bring Maris 48-g's. Of that variety we could
fill a case from MS or AU all the way down to AG. Keeping it to one
consistently struck variety would remove a variable. Maybe all the
variables is the point. Whoever does the exhibit can make the
decisions. I'd even let Roger (aka his holiness) take the ball and
run with it. Maybe all the coins must have holes, and the point is
to net grade all coins. Some holes add to the grade, other subtract.
Maybe David Palmer has the most suitable personality to pull this
exhibit off with style. Send me an email to sign up.
Season's Greetings, Buell
