Adam Vinatieri 2002 game used throwback jersey vs. Lions (Vinatieri LOA)

I normally don't collect kickers/punters/offensive linemen, but when you have made two Super Bowl winning kicks for my team and kicked 45 yarder in the snow to send a game to overtime to kick off a dynasty, well I have to have a jersey in the collection.

This is 2002 throwback style jersey was worn against the Lions on Thanksgiving. Adam would have a perfect kicking record on the day (2/2 FG and 2/2 PAT) and the Pats would win 20-12. This jersey originated from Vinatieri and is signed by him on the back. 2002 was the first year that Reebok made the Patriots jerseys. "02-46" is in the neck tag. On the front tag, 46 and +2 length tags are present. Absent is the NFL shield from the throwback style jersey. Not much usage wear from a kickers jersey.

Ben Coates 1995 game used jersey (Patriots COA)
Before there was Gronk there was Ben "Technicolor Amazing Dream" Coates as the All Pro #87 wearing TE for the Pats. In 1995 Coates made his second consecutive 1st Team All Pro. Him and Shannon Sharpe really paved the way for Tight Ends to be a bigger part of the passing game. This home gamer has multiple team repairs. Coates was wearing this jersey in week 1 against the Browns where he hauled in 9 receptions for 106 yards and kept wearing it throughout the season. The Pats wore their home blue (week 1 CLE, week 2 MIA, week 6 DEN, week 8 BUF, week 9 CAR, week 11 @MIA, week 12 IND, week 14 NOR, week 15 NYJ) at home and at Miami that year. Coates can be seen wearing this jersey throughout the season, however, I don't have footage or photos from every game, so can't say that it was worn for every game (although it seems like it), just that it was throughout the season.

The jersey has the 1995 starter front tag and is a size 52. On alot of the 1995 jerseys that I have seen the size is written on the front tag with a pen. Inside the Custom Crafted stamp reads "OFFICIAL NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS SET 1 1995-96 SEASON." There are cuffed sleeves present. On the front collar Patriots logo there is a TM that is present on retail jerseys from the era and have seen on some gamers, but not usually present.

Hi. I am an Iowa Fan looking for a Tim Dwight game used jersey or anything from Andre Tippett as well. My son is an Iowa /Patriots fan so I am looking for something from either of these two great Hawkeyes that also played for the Patriots. Thanks for you time!
