Hi Steve,,,,,,,

In your enthusiasm to strike a fatal blow to your arch nemesis in the meteorite world you forgot one important fact. The meteorite coins/tokens/medals (or whatever everyone wants to call them) are truely limited edition. There will only be ONE #420 of the Campo coin or any other medal that has been struck using a reputable company using a mold and die process. This is the main difference from a piece of paper with a number written on it. I am not saying that you would make more than ONE #1 of any of your cases but in theory it could be easily done.

Also, there are quite a few of us selling meteorite coins/medals/tokens so when you are taking a shot at these collectables, well you are taking a shot at a lot of us.

Just because I fell good about going on vacation for a week, I will give discount on all of my meteorite coins/medals/tokens for the next 24 hours. $20- each for the Campo and NWA 869 Medals and $70- each for the planetary Medals. Payment must be made by 5:00 Eastern Time on Thursday so that I can ship on my way to the airport on Friday. Worldwide shipping costs are included in the discounted price. Unfortunately, I can not take specific # orders on this short of notice.
