I wonder how much its worth, I have always wanted one, just to hold onto until I reach the age of retirement, that's about in 35-40 years, and just to see the increase in its value

Great to see that your hard work has been rewarded   . Reward yourself by watching the youtube video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VM9qbcdDBeg . Shows some rare Aussie coins with a lovely "2000 Mule" finale !. Squire

Looks like you scored!
Nevertheless, I think that these are becoming increasingly attractive for fakers. Confirmation of authenticity by an experienced professional may be required.

Congrats Brad, Nice find. Mind you, this has me thinking that there are not many investments that can match noodling. Say this one is worth $450, mid range of estimates. Basically your return on $1 is 45,000% in the half second it took you to turn it over. I don't think anyone could complain about that sort of return.

 Well done pubbrad!  with sel that it would be best to get it confirmed. It's a little hard to tell with the pics, though I must admit that it's a great pic of your top fingerprint, the lower it goes the more out of focus it gets. I did my measurement test and I'm not happy with the numbers I got (but remember I'm as blind as a bat ..... which is why I measure in the first place). Any chance of a scan?
