vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 08/28/2009 7:50 pm Took this photo with my cellphone at the ANA Worlds Fair of Money in Los Angeles. As much as I wanted to handle it, it was behind 1" bullet proof plexiglass not to mention motion sensors inside the cube, as well as police officers and armed security everywhere. I was at least close enough to see contact marks and all the details I believe it was insured for a mere $7.5 million. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 08/29/2009 09:00 am Would have loved to see this coin up close. Would enjoy hearing some of your panning experiences also. I did a lot of that when I lived in Southern California back in the 80's. Report this Post to the Staff
