What do you mean I don't understand your statement? Yes I do own the coin since May of last year. It was the one in the Torex auction of February of 2010 also when I sold my PCGS example in VG-10.

February Torex>2010: 1921 50ยข ICCS MS65. The King of Canadian coins. An absolute gem of a coin that should be viewed. A well struck issue with sublime eye appeal. The reverse is nearly immaculate and grades MS66 and the obverse without a doubt is just as outstanding and grades MS65+. Attractively toned with light gold, pink and green shades. A rarity that saw only a few survivors escape the mint before the date's mass melting. A Specimen example graded ICCS AU50 brought nearly $150,000 in the last Torex auction. Realistically, this example should realize the estimate.
Matrix, when you have a moment, tell me the "last two digits" of the I.C.C.S. certificate. Take your time, I' have patience!

Why so much doubt call C&P ask Marc or Eric they will confirm the sale. I am not going to my bank any time soon. I would not lie why would I do that on such a rare coin? Or simply ask Brian on the other coin website or any other long time member there they will confirm this it is a well known fact I have this coin. I was to buy the 36 dot dime from C&P instead went for this coin. They also have a 36 dot dime in SP-68 PCGS owned by AussiBob before that they will offer it for sale in the auction of July of 2011.

Matrix, You have to realize that this Hobby does not have too many collectors that have their hands on a 1/4 Million dollar coin at the age of 30! I'm only being the devils advocate. By the way, just two more questions, what is the first alphabet of your first name and what Province do you reside in?

Lollll it is (A) and I live in Quebec the province not the city. Very true most 30 year old people do not have 250 000$ - 300 000$ for a coin you are correct and it is normal for you to doubt me you are in the RCMP if I am correct.

Matrix, yes, I've been a street Cop for almost 30 years and I've heard a lot of stories in my time, which is why I reservations on many things people tell me! I've been told that the intial of the first name of the buyer of this coin starts with a "J". Why is there a discrepancy from what yu are telling me? Glenn |

No it is (A) 110% certain. My brother's name starts with a (J) I guess depends on who you talked to. But rest assured I am the owner.

Matrix, after seeing the "J' I now am 110 % positive you are the owner of this coin. You, from now on will be declared by Me as the "God of Canadian Numismatics"! If anyone disputes this claim, let me know, I will find them and beat them up!

Hahahahahaha lolllllllllll I hope the J does not stand for Jerk lollllllll But please remember I also like to collect semi key dates as well my collection doe snot consist only of ultra rare coins I love the penny collection I have and buying U.S early date coins (1793 to 1804).
I also very much enjoy sports cards 1909 to now and comic books 1938 till the end of the silver age (about 1970).

Matrix, Yes being a cop is very interesting and extremely exciting, however, I work and reside in the only Bilingual city in Canada which means if you don't speak french you are handicapped. As a result, I am a constable for life, after serving 27 years on the street and have junior Members with less than 10 years service telling me what to do.
It's 100% my fault for being too lazy or perhaps too stupid to learn french, but I'm paying the price now.
I've moved to a 90% french speaking city just outside of Moncton called Dieppe, N.B. reason being I want both my sons to be brought up bilingual and not have the handicap and frustrations that I've endured in the past 50 years living in this area.
Anyhow, it's Numismatics that keeps me sane and about the only thing in life that prevents me from putting my Smith and Wesson 9 MM to my head!
