I love penny machines! I have also hit some pretty nice scores on these, no where near $3200 though :-O Again, nice 09-S VDB GoldRush58!

Wheezydog - thanks for the advice on contacting the seller, looks like he only responds to email Mon - Fri. So I will touch base with him on Monday to work out any details.
Also I will have to think about the avatar, I see what your saying about not having the S and VDB on both side.
Plus .. need to make sure it all works out with this coin
vermontensium - thanks for the reply .. I am hooked on those penny machines .. most times I happy to hit 4 or 5 hundred .. .sometimes you know one is going to hit and I will max bet it .. this one was trying to hit the top progressive jackpot of 31K .. but was happy with the second highest $3275.27
My best hit so far was $5746.
Again thank you all for replying, this is the most replies I have ever got from a post.

This is Hard! The waiting .. it was at mobile Alabama at 5 am this morning, at 9 AM it made it to Pensacola ... and hit the local P.O. at 10:55 ...... I have the door open waiting .. waiting .. waiting ..
I even put some clothes in the washing machine .. a little later I went back put them in the dryer .. turned to walk away .. said wow .. they were dry ... I had forgot to hit the start button on the washing machine ..
This waiting is very very hard ..

It came .... in a really big box
I am really happy to have it ..
I wish it was not in a slab .. because I don't think I will break it out.
Not sure how good of pictures I can get with it in the slab
I do wish it was a little better strike .. but overall I think it is a very nice coin

 You know you want to take your own photos. How about a shot of it sitting on the first page of your Dansco? Then I can tell from it how bad he wants to move in with his friends!
