Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 1:47 pm That's what I have to go on for now. I think I'll get it Monday! If not it's not going to be a huge loss. Report this Post to the Staff

Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 09/29/2019 06:27 am I did some looking around and found two more coins up for auction that are definitely proofs. They're listed as bu. I'm not giving and hints on what they are but other people have spotted them too. Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 09/30/2019 3:51 pm This one ended up being an impaired proof. I took a pic so you could see the scratches on the obverse. Do you guys think this is worth the $7 I spent on it? Report this Post to the Staff
