Very nice Tim!

So I take it, they are all common dates? That Buffalo doesn't have 3 legs does it?

Ha, you know, I never bothered to look. Just did, sadly a full 4-legger, and the Morgan is common. Or maybe not so sadly, it would have been a beast to crack that thing out of the acrylic!

PS the Lincolns are all mint 1973s, so I am guessing that is the vintage of my fine piece here.

Yes, imagine seeing something significant in there like a key date, or major mint error DDO, DDR, etc... and having to break it of of that acrylic?!?!?!? Or submit the entire seat to a TPG. Maybe they would break it out and re-slab it?!?!?

I don't have any pics, but there is a house in the western suburbs of Chicago, that has a bar in the basement. The bar is about 12 - 15 feet long and the entire top is BU Morgan dollars imbedded in marine varnish. There must be 500 coins on it. The house is about 100 or so years old. The bar is a masterpiece. The house changed owners and I haven't been there in over 20 years - wish I had pics.

mtuma3 - there's a similar bar in Jackson Hole, Wyoming - the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar.
