My grandson was with me, and I pointed to the shield on the slab and asked him what color it was. He said, "Gold."
Then I pointed to the bean sticker and he said "Green", that my friend made it official..

Well, makes my $56.50 invoice from the same auction seem like chump change.

Just think of this: the same year and type of Lincoln Cent pictured below (My Coin) ($40), but it took a few more hits and cost over five thousand times less!

Yeah, they "got" me for $126 yesterday - but still so miniscule!
