Lot Title:	Sixty unopened 1961 Proof Sets
Lot Number:	319
Description:	A blonde walks into a coin shop and asks for sixty unopened 1961 Proof Sets. As she stares at them, pondering the hidden treasures, she unexpectedly starts to become frustrated that she can't see the actual coins, then suddenly runs into the bathroom, threatening suicide. Concerned, the cataloger approaches the door and says "Come on, you know you don't want to do this!". "Go away!" she shouts, "Nobody cares about me and my sixty unopened 1961 Proof Sets!". The cataloger crashes through the door and is surprised to see that she does have a rope, but its tied around her ankles. "Are you really trying to hang yourself?" he asks. "Yeah, what about it?" she replies. "Well, most people would tie the rope around their neck." The blonde says "Well yeah, sure, I tried that, but then I had trouble breathing."

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
