Art Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 I don't remember it at all. Interesting that it's an add for US Commems at KMart. Must have been one of those experimental marketing programs that the Mint tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 ACK!!! Touching proofs with fingers!!! That makes me cry a little bit inside. No wonder a majority of proofs I see are smeared with fingerprints and gunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtryka Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Not long ago I found some of the original marketing pamphlets that they gave away at the banks when selling these coins in 1986. It's funny to see stuff like that and actually remember buying the coins at the bank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
