It all started with a 40 miles trip to my favorite coin store.
Once there, I was let in through a heavily armored back door.
The transaction was carried out swiftly, and with two escourts I made my way back to my truck and headed for home. I had security in front, and in back, and I think it was well worth the expense.
Upon reaching home I hurried to my front door and gave ny secret knock. My wife then opened the latches on the six locks, and let me enter.
We made our way to the living room where a small group of friends had gathered and a place on the mantle had been cleared.
The piece of perfection was placed in its temporary resting place for about 10 minutes while family and friends gathered around to admire it.
Next, I took the numismatic gem, and with a small entourage we left the house through a secret back door, jumped in a waiting vehichle, and sped to the bank.
There, my safety deposit box was opened, and the spectacular piece of coin craftsmanship was placed inside. The box was closed, and locked back into place.
And, that's how my One Ounce Proof Gold Buffalo came to arrive at its new home.
During those occasions when it leaves its home at the bank, my wife has announced she will care for it personally.
Perhaps I embellished the tale just a bit, but it is one of the most beautiful coins I have ever seen.
Knowing how much they love the buffalo, I hope Terry and Old Dan own one, or soon will own one.
