IMHO the "Aurora Borelis" is the best in the series. Report this Post to the Staff

crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 05/31/2005 11:02 pm I bought this particular coin for my wife and she absolutely loves it! I do wish many of the Mints would slow down just a bit as the new technology is really hard on the old wallet! Too much, too quick! Report this Post to the Staff
