but have not heard back from the earlier email. But sometimes actions speak louder than words!

This is what I just sent via "Contact This Member":

Dear a1k1r1,

Greetings, again. I (and others in the chip collecting community) have noticed that you have pulled the auction for the Frontier mule. The general feeling is that you were not aware, at the time of posting the auction, what the item was and many of us wish to express our thanks for making the decission to pull the auction, if only because the description was inaccurate. To re-do the auction with this added information would not be a problem, and you might even get a bid or two because some people also like to have those discarded metal center coins (called CIC's for Coin in Center). No guarantees, but you never can tell.

I myself, only have the $5, $20 and $25 CIC versions and only have a for real $5 chip. These can be fairly valuable when found completely intact, with a $100 version valued at about $800! Here is a link to a picture of an intact $500 version, valued at about $60.

Anyway, we thank you!
