Did Rocky Balboa ever run within three miles of the mint where this coin was made?


Though his epic run was nearly 31 miles long from his house steps to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, never was he within 3 miles for the mint that produced this coin.

In 1953, a thirty year old Shelby, worried about his punctuality, wears his work coveralls to practice. Starting a buzz of conversation and giving life to the dubious fashion statement of overalls. This coin had already been made.

That's a pretty bold statement for a guy who can't even upload a picture with the correct orientation.
