It's not a very big one, only 1/20th ounce.

Made an offer on ebay and ended up paying $90 total shipped. Not sure if that is a deal as I didn't see any others like this on the "Sold" list on the bay.

This is the sellers pics I just cropped em.

So without further ado here she is.

Gold is addicting, as you are undoubtedly finding out. This one looks great, but what will be your next purchase?

Congratulations, enjoy your purchase!

For me, gold is just another coinage metal.
In World coinage history, gold, as a coinage metal, is no more, or less important than copper or silver.

The problem with gold, is it's high intrinsic value.
That can be a problem for collectors on a low collector budget.

Sure, I have quite a few gold coins in my collection, but for the most part, gold has lost most of it's mystique for me.

That is a fact. My first purchase was meant to be my only gold coin in my collection. Needless to say I didn't stop at 1.

Nice addition Mont

Thanks all. I am very excited to won this one. Now I just have to wait for the snail mail to deliver it. Can't wait to see what it looks like in hand.

Thanks again for all the kind replies and Happy Thanksgiving all!
