Yes, that was the only full set of Western Playgrounds known at the time. It had an unknown player in it. Chad Drier (RIP) bought the set from me and I flew to his house in Santa Barbara to deliver them. It was low 6 figures. My wife wanted me to deposit the check before the plane trip back LOL...
That is when I found out you can't deposit a 6 figure check into an ATM..(at least at B of A at that time)
And looking back at the list, I guess my McMillen did have a coupon. I know it was beat up. Interestingly, I had Mark Macrae (hi Mark) on the phone as I was unpacking the piles of Zs sent in shrink wrap. Mark would tell me about each one as i pulled them from the stacks...with the McMillen one bringing a little excitement.

Tom,
I was a little surprised at the distribution between the TPGs (13 for SGC and 3 for PSA). My guess is that if someone purchased the card in a TPG holder, they probably didn't cross it over else we'd probably see more PSA graded cards. Good luck with the search.
