Steve Moran wants me to call him. Apparently there are several people
complaining that we didn't make enough and we didn't make them available to the
public until a week after the event. I think they are pissed off because they
didn't get one! I think he will want to convince me to mint more. The new
Director for MOGA has suggested some things that we might go with that if we
can do it. I will let him disclose the details when we have approval from
Hogwild. This will keep the coin unique and still allow more to purchase a
"common coin".

I think it was a fantastic idea, wonderful foresight on Mike's part. I
don't feel it cheapens the value either not when you sell 200 of them in ten
minutes.

I agree and personally, I don’t care if the coin goes for $50.00 on
EBay or if it goes for $15.00. The people selling them are out to make money
for themselves and that money doesn’t benefit MOGA, and this money does
directly. Personally, I’d have minted as many of them as we could have sold
and not limited them to 200. But then again, that’s me.
