I have a spare 13 BS Grim Reaper, Baviarian Tigers, 493 Grim Reapers and 494 AMU coins to trade. I'm looking for Fighter and Bomb Sqn or US Naval Sqn coins.

What did everyone else pick up?

Yes they both went very early. Great to finally meet up with you too Gary.

I'd ordered them direct from the 37th Booster club before RIAT. Interestingly they didn't have them out on the table when I first went (and picked up the Doolittle coin) but they had them out later when the Doolittle's had sold out. Stock (and prices) seem to be changing thought the day on a lot of the stalls.

All my trades have now gone except the Bavarian Tiger.
