WHERE oh where can the Bechtler mint golds be?

I set out two Fridays ago, on a hunt for Bechtler mint gold coins and the first week went okay, found a beautiful silver eagle. 2003 W PR70 DCAM.

Nothing else when, on the way to Mount Airy, (Mayberry RFD) at my sons home two Fridays ago, my lovely wife Helen began complaining pretty heavy of a stomach ache. Saying it was not the usual pains, we stopped at a clinic and the doctor sent her away with pain and antibiotic prescriptions.

I did not like the way he did not know what was causing it, so we went to the nearest clinic, which was closed, as was a 2nd one.

Finally I found an emergency room open in Tarboro, N. C.

To make a very long story short, appendicitis. 10 days later we get her out and two days after that, we finally got home.

I did find a nice coin at a great price. Only $35 dollars. and three steel pennies. I guess the real steal was the eagle.

More later.
