Hi,
People might think I am cheap, but every cent I put into my collection I
consider gone forever. I think investing in hobbies is a scam, a few people
with money toss it around driving the price up so they can sell at a profit
until the hobby implodes (every hobby has gone through that and most never
recover from the inflated prices). All this does is keep people with shallow
pockets from enjoying the hobby as much as they could have otherwise.

The buyer seems to be a coin collector, wonder
what he
wants with it.
Hmm, I'd suspect he probably bought it as an "investment"...?
Would anybody here pay $5K for one of these (did
anybody)?
Never in a bazillion years, sheer madness!
TTFN - Pete.
