Does it have a special significance that isn't listed in the Heritage lot, like he took it to space with him? Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/20/2018 04:35 am WADR to the Armstrong family,it is a case of "buy the coin not the holder". Same with the book,the coin and the book come with a certificate. You are really paying the premium for the certificate. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/20/2018 09:30 am One thing you have to consider on these things as well. This is the Armstrong FAMILY collection. Not everything being offered belonged to Neal Armstrong. For example I noticed some of the articles are provenances to an S. K. Armstrong. I would be concerned that some of the family members are cashing in on their common stuff by capitalizing on Neil's name. Report this Post to the Staff

Panther Pillar of the Community United States 751 Posts	Posted 11/10/2018 1:29 pm Personally I think for the family to auction off personal items of Neil's is rather tacky. He should have a museum with all of this stuff displayed. Dan Report this Post to the Staff
jeffbuckes Pillar of the Community United States 832 Posts	Posted 11/27/2018 12:49 pm I never understood "celebrity" items like this. I don't want a coin owned or held by anyone famous - even if it is or were the first this that or the other thing. To each his own, but I hope that whoever bought that SBA really likes it. I'm not sure how well that price tag will mature. Report this Post to the Staff
