Just want to clarify things.
In 4th annual when It was heads up I wanted to end the game as soon as possible with no other reasons. nothing changed.
If any game was that predictable I would take a large sums of money to LV and bet to win 20 cents on a dollar. Why work.
It is a game to have fun. I have more fun playing 10-2 off suite in a no-limit cash game than just waiting for premium hands. I do quite well.
I'm getting ready to head up to the poker room to watch the game (Seattle vs giants) and look up the scores of the 49er game.

Wish me luck.

spaceace if it is ok with you I would like to make a conditional pick this week.

Following Mayflower2020: If SolarPenny takes the Dallas I will pick the 49ers. If not I will take the Saints over the packers.

Very disappointing I thought the Browns were better than that.

Good game coming up next week: Cowboys vs the 49ers.

I don't know which direction the gold prices is headed but at $23 over spot I think it is a great deal. For me owning the older gold coins are far more appealing than Modern bullion if they are priced the same.

NOte: 822a same dies, off-metal strike in what appears to be somewhat impure copper. Rarity 8

Your coin is a BG822 or also known as Lee22a, Very little gold are in these types of coins, usually 10k or less and often times much less.
822a is a trial pieces made with copper as stated in the book.

I agree with the BG-975 or also known as the Lee 45B in the first coin as being the best match.
1874 low date. 7th star being small. from period two(1858-1882)
Rarity 3
.13g
9.5 to 9.6mm


coin two is a charm.

I bought the book for $60 in February of 2016 and even got an additional discount for buying several different books. CBjesse is the seller and he was once active on this forum. This is his side job and is a wonderful person to deal with. As for this reference book you can buy my copy just PM me.

I'm horrible at grading coins and more so on nickel/copper coins. As far as the two coins both has almost all the details which is a requirements for XF and above. The AU coin is just a little bit sharper while the XF has marks all over the field and making it less attractive.
