Default COIN WANTED

Greg,
I didnt know where to ask. So If it isnt ok. Then I understand. I am a huge George Washington and French and Indian War Collector. I am only looking for two coins. One is the 1982 Commemorative Coin celebrating GW's 250th Birthday. I can not find one anywhere. Can anyone help me on that one? The second is a Full Mexican 8 reale "Pillar" or "Milled Dollar" as some call it. Dated 1753-1792. I can not find one of those anywhere either. I have a bunch of cut bits. But not the full Reale.
Thanks,
Rob

Hey Rob,
I've sold a few of these, I checked and Kenscoins just sold one at auction.

I bet he has a few more if you were to contact him.

Check this to see if it was what you had in mind.

Default George Washington

Rob,
I think I know where you can get your hands on the Washington coin. In fact I know where you can get two of the coins still in the boxes from the mint. Do I have your attention yet. Let me go just a little farther. These coins have a really excellent price for you. Now I know I have your attention. I am getting ready to go to therapy for my neck but I will check back around 9:30 or so to see if you are interested......
Mike

Thanks a ton everyone! At the last minute this evening. I located 10 of them at a local buyers place. I had to buy all 10 to get the $5 price but I did it! Now I just have to locate the #1 on my list. The full 8 Reale 1732-1800...HELP!!!! LOL Price isnt an issue for this coin. Its is my favorite from my favorite historical time period.
Again. Thanks a ton!

Rob
