Owner Comments:
This coin was the first addition to this set in probably 12 years. I don't think I'd added a coin since around 2009 or 2010 when this coin was bought in late 2021.
At the time I was involved in reimaging a lot of my coins and sets and improving the presentation of sets in my registry with banner images. That got me trotting out a lot of my old NCLT sets. I was also finding myself somewhat between collecting projects at the time and my wife took the opportunity to encourage me to get this coin as a way of encouraging me to work on this set again. And it seems to have worked at least a little. :)
