I am going to be 65 in a few weeks so I know what you mean. It isn't the value of the unfired Nickel 29-2 that bothers me it's the fact that it is so damn pretty without a marks on its shiny surfaces.

But then I know someone will be shooting it when I start my dirt nap so maybe I should be shooting and enjoying it now.
