Numismat Pillar of the Community United States 1666 Posts	Posted 06/17/2013 10:24 pm Saw this on ebay, where it ended tonight with a high bid of $434. Looks like an old unofficial issue or something. I was just curious if anyone knows what exactly this is. Report this Post to the Staff

realeswatcher Pillar of the Community United States 1962 Posts	Posted 06/18/2013 08:07 am Sort of obvious what it is if you follow along here... Amazing that two big guns went nuts on it like this. I wonder if anyone would have bid at intermediate levels (but snipes didn't execute)? In doing a little searching on the high bidder, I sort of wonder if his name isn't Mike D.

Just wanted to know more about it. Report this Post to the Staff
realeswatcher Pillar of the Community United States 1962 Posts	Posted 06/19/2013 8:33 pm I was wondering if the UNDERBIDDER was a certain person in my post, btw (mistakenly said "high bidder")... Has anyone checked this piece in Riddell? Report this Post to the Staff
